It’s hard to find self-taught triple threats these days. If designers aren’t graduating from Parsons, they were taught by someone in Europe. Felix Llamog is one of the very few who did neither. He started teaching himself to sew in 2009 and now is a proclaimed designer, makeup artist and hair stylist.
He started out by bringing a few clothing pieces to makeup shoots he worked on. It started small and now Michelle Obama is raving about his cocktail dresses. His small show of ten models in 2010 lead him down the runway of success. Felix received rave reviews when he debuted his “Resort Collection 2012” at the “What Women Want” event.
Felix is set to premiere his “Unexpected Collection,” on Sept. 8. Be ready to be impressed with more than 30 one-of-a-kind pieces from this self-taught designer. The show will be held at SET at noon. Miami Fashion Week may have come and gone but Miami is always on trend.
