Pearls of Hope
Lucienne Gigante is the epitome of modern chic in vassalloAtelier’s Soft Pink Stretch Mikado gown. It’s beading brings to life Susan G. Komen’s Pink Gala Pearls of Hope theme. Embroidered in Degrade Pink Pearls and Sequin Florets, the beading gives it a 40’s and 50’s Parisian Couture flair, while the asymmetrical cut skirt and half train is totally 2025.

IN THE MOOD FOR………
Boards? Moodboards are an essential part of the design process. They serve as a road map, or an inspirational road map, if you will, when starting to design a new collection. The boards are filled with photos, fabric swatches, trims, beading ideas, sketches and any other materials which a designer, or design team, feels adds to the story trying to be told.
Here are a couple of our moodboards done for prior collections. One even includes a pic of a dress I designed while working for BCBG Max Azria in LA.

FLORA
We are thrilled to share with you an article that came out this past Sunday in El Nuevo Día’s Magacín section about our latest collection, Flora.
The new collection is inspired by everything flower, but done in an abstract and minimalist way. There aren’t your typical floral prints, nor a thousand different colors. The palette consists of Red, Black and Ecru, with one print rounding out the color range.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank the people from Magacín, especially Leyra González, Editor-in-Chief of the publication, for her support and Florencia Garcia Melazzo for her beautiful writing. Also to our fab photographer, Jose Vallecillo. Hair&MakeUp by the beautiful Jennifer Marine. Our gorgeous model, Iracelys Hernandez from Element Models and Shoes by Novus.

The Chicest Thing You’ll Wear Come Spring.
The Shirtdress is an essential piece once the cold days and nights have gone away until the Fall, but this one is a good as it gets. Printed and cut in a light weight Silk and Poly Mikado, with a stand up collar, pleated skirt and side seam pockets, you’ll look as chic as it gets.

vassalloAtelier at The Castillo Serrallés
This past year we had the wonderful opportunity to shoot our beautiful dresses in one of the most iconic spaces in Puerto Rico, El Castillo Serrallés. Built in the 1930’s by the owner of the Destilería Serrallés, makers of one of the best rums in the world, Don Q rum, and designed by Pedro Adolfo de Castro.
It was a perfect backdrop for our one of a kind pieces. With beautiful Aslin Marie modeling the gowns we new something special was going to come out of it.
Thank you to the wonderful people working at the Museo Castillo Serrallés whom welcome us with open arms.
Gracias mil!!!!!
