Born and raised in Colombia, Carolina Ronderos grew up surrounded by breathtaking scenery and vegetation. Her natural flair and passion for the fashion craft made her move to London to begin her journey into the world of fashion design followed by couture. Studied at University of the Art – London College of Fashion and graduated in 2013. During her studies she did an internship working with Orsola di Castro, pioneer in eco-fashion in Europe as well as at Corlette, a luxury accessories brand specialized in corset-style belts and gloves. After graduating she worked at well-known designer brand Alexander McQueen and Couture House Ralph and Russo.

Her designs reflect her passion for history and diverse cultural beauty. She has a fascination for ancient craftsmanship techniques and a great understanding of fabric manipulation and the female form. Through every one of their pieces Carolina looks to enhance the women’s figure.

Carolina Ronderos hopes to shine a light on the artistry found in Colombian communities, stimulating their local economies, training them and making them more competitive. The Brand produces luxury fashion partly handmade by artisans, indigenous communities and jail inmates from Colombia. Together they create in an ethical way, the beautiful handwork that todays customer craves. Carolina’s products are human touched and human made, they carry a heritage and a story. For the designer luxury today is about responsibility, business, profit and including everyone fairly in the fashion chain. Specializing in meticulously hand-crafted pieces, the brand offers its customers an exclusive experience in which craftsmanship and design are at the heart of every creation.
