A native of Ecuador, now residing in New York, Laura Santana has always had a deep passion for fashion and design. She became a successful fashion model at age 18 and went on to pursue a career in fashion design, opening several boutiques under her flagship brand, Laura S. Her own life experiences as a family-oriented wife and mother, entrepreneur and avant-garde business woman, along with strong influences from customs and traditions, all are expressed in her distinctive designs. Earlier in 2015 Ms. Santana showed her designs at Dominican Republic Fashion Week to rave reviews.
Laura Santana’s latest collection is entitled “Femme” and honors Latina women and their resilient and enterprising spirit with a strong feminine allure. The collection features natural fabrics of silk, linen, organza and Swiss lace. The clean, modern yet feminine silhouettes appeal to women who want to feel free and comfortable, yet stylish and elegant.
