I'm joined by none other than Jeanette Limas today, a phenomenal fashion designer who's graduate collection received the Young Designer of the Year Award, allowed her to present her designs at Dominican Republic Fashion Week, and won her a scholarship to Parsons School of Design. In New York City, Jeanette refined her techniques at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) and gained valuable experience working on the design teams of Urban Zen by Donna Karan and couturier Jolibe Atelier and launched her namesake brand in 2019 and presented multiple successful collections at New York Fashion Week.
In 2022, Jeanette earned a coveted place on the Amazon Prime show Making the Cut, hosted by fashion icons Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn, an experience she shares with us today, along with the happy accidents that led her there, the magical powers of clothes, and how she strives to always show up with authenticity and enthusiasm. We also get into building a business, understanding the promise of a new season through fashion, and the importance of coming from a place of learning when approaching new challenges.
Thank you for listening,
xx
Jo
