Born and raised in Port-Au-Prince, Haiti, Antonella has always been exposed to the arts and craft of her country. Although she grew up around seamstresses, her passion for design started after watching a show on Fashion TV; from there her wonderful adventure with fashion design started.

Studying  Fashion Design in San Francisco has permitted her to broaden her knowledge while staying connected to her home. Haiti greatly influences Antonella’s work; from the culture to the architecture and the political crisis affecting the country.

 

Antonella believes in comfort in luxury, and through her past three years at the Academy of Art University, she has acquired more skills in fashion design, pattern making, computer-aided design, sewing, visualization and presentation  which have all permitted her to bring her visions to life.
