About LXG
 

Laura Xiomara Guevara was born and raised in Bogota, Colombia. She attended Fashion School at the Arturo Tejada Cano in Bogota. At 18 she was fortunate to get her first job at a women’s clothing studio, with zero experience besides what she was learning at Fashion School she started as a seamstress and quickly moved to the cutting room, pattern making, quality control and soon she was in charge of the manufacturing studio. In 2001 she moved to Texas, she has worked in multiple manufacturing facilities designing, sketching, cutting, sewing, training, as well as manufacturing for other designers. Laura’s years of work experience in the clothing manufacturing industry and the study of human anatomy gives her an advantage, knowledge and ability to develop a garment from concept to completion that very few designers can accomplish in their career.

Laura has always held a fascination with fashion history, especially focusing on the 16th thru 18th centuries as an inspiration. Through the years, she has discovered a true love for reproducing historically accurate designs, combining old and new techniques to create unique garments. Some of Laura’s specialties include: couture gowns, bridal gowns, red carpet gowns, historically accurate gowns, couture and ready to wear corsets, couture and ready to wear swimwear, couture and ready to wear lingerie.
