I have over 20 years of experience in the fashion industry, including senior technical designer positions at Guess and Lucky Brand, and a degree in fashion design from the Art Institute of California.
I have taught many people how to sew, mend garments, make alterations, cut patterns, and even create their own custom designs.
I love making costumes and was fortunate enough to be on the team at J&M Costumers in Hollywood, who are well known for their elaborate puppets and costumes used in the film and television industry.
My twin preschoolers inspire me to create fun costumes and other projects that stimulate their imaginations.
"When your daughter wants to be “Coraline- THE DOLL, not the girl,” you have no choice but to go custom or deny your kindergartner the opportunity to be the hippest kid on the playground. Enter Carolina who put together an amazing ensemble that not only dazzled, but was made of excellent quality materials and craftsmanship that were able to be reworn as non-costume clothing! We’ve got a happy kid and a happy mom. This has started what is definitely going to be life-long relationship. She’s already planning the next costume and thinking of prom dresses."
"Carolina was so kind and helpful when deciding what size to order for our little one! The quality of the monkey costume is incredible and will be loved by us for years to come. We clipped some pink bows on her ears for a little girly flare and it was just too cute for words! Thank you so much!"
"A very dear and generous friend of mine threw me a b/day party. But what do you get the person who has (or can buy themself) everything? How would I say THANK YOU? When I saw Carolina's Crown of Fire I KNEW that was the gift. It was not just a crown it is a piece of art and everyone at the party recognized it as such. Carolina made sure I got the crown early and communicating with her was so easy. CAROLINA IS NOT JUST GREAT TO DEAL WITH BUT ALL HER ITEMS ARE WORKS OF ART. I can not recommend her and her pieces highly enough."
"The costume is true to size, very well made, and my daughter ADORES it! I am extremely grateful her dream costume was available from someone since circumstances kept me from being able to make it for her this year. I 100% recommend Carolina and this costume!"
"The costume fits my daughter perfectly and she adores it! Great quality. I'm also pleased with how warm and soft the fabric is. We have cold weather on Halloween and she should be able to layer under it to have her costume visible in full force."
"We bought the Purple People Eater costume from Carolina and are thrilled with it. This is a beautiful hand made quality product. And Carolina responded quickly to our questions and even managed to get it shipped to us before Halloween so that our son could wear it for trick or treating! Thank you Carolina!!"
"Awesome customer service. Carolina is awesome! She accommodated me and I have nothing but great things to say about her."
