Her garments focus on an easy fit for a variety of women's bodies.

Each garment is developed in a local, family owned factory. Together Camille and Rufino create comfortable and feminine pieces that can be adapted to an everyday lifestyle.
The third presentation was by Undercover Lover. This revolutionary brand combines comfortable apparel with convenient accessories. Their costume inspired pieces are go to staples for the music festival crowd.
Veltimera was the fourth showcase. The label provides Eco-friendly high-quality fashion made of organic and recycled materials with great textures and prints, none of which are derived from animal skins, leathers, or furs.
Sabel Made closed out the evening. Designer Serena Abel specializes in colorful clothing geared toward accentuating ones natural beauty. What sets Sabel Made apart from the rest is that the customer chooses the type/style of garment and the artwork that will be printed on the fabric. Then Serena hand paints and sews each garment in her L.A. studio.
