Designer Spotlight: Liancarlo

A True Artist Bringing Life to Fabrics and the Canvas

Carlos Ramirez, wedding dress designer for Liancarlo, is an artist in all senses of the word. Upon touching the silk fabrics of his wedding dresses to putting “oil” to canvas - new life is brought to the ordinary.

Carlos Ramirez busy creating designs for his couture line of wedding dresses, Liancarlo.

A woman enters the bridal salon and once she slips on a Liancarlo design she becomes a bride. “He combines feminie silhouettes with the use of luxurious fabrics, sumptuous textures, and exquisite hand-work detail (Liancarlo).” All while creating these works of art from the United States, it’s always a pleasure to work with designers who remain Stateside for their dresses.

And Ramirez continues the journey for the bride on his own personal blog Art Reflects Life . This is yet another platform for the designer to dip his toes into, sketched paintings. He takes images from the inspiring wedding stories of his bride’s and transforms the emotions behind them into works of art to be cherished forever. Can you even imagine how special it would be for your wedding gown designer to create a piece of artwork for your wall? You would have thought that the dress alone was a work of art, but to top it off there is the possibility of a timeless artwork from the designer.
