”My work holds deep meaning when is created with intention. I feel most fulfilled designing for each unique body. Without my clients, my craft has no purpose. Every piece tells a story , and I cherish sharing that journey with you. Thank you for your love and trust.“ – Myriam Marcela
"Marcela's work, is like Marcela herself. Beautiful on the inside and the outside. Intricate, exacting details like beading, lace, stitches,meaningful interior linings, recycling of articles of clothing that mean something to you...truly all of the details are all important to her; your final piece of clothing becomes more than the sum of these parts.
If you want to invest in a piece of clothing that flatters all that you are, that will live a long life outside of trends and that will be crafted with intelligence, love and care, work with Marcela!"
"Marcela is one of the finest custom tailors in the country, if not the world! She is highly attuned to the details that make you feel good in your clothing, and her command of the craft, even at its mathiest, is superb. Add to that an ethical backbone for sourcing and reuse, plus a bright and sunny disposition, and you truly cannot go wrong. I trust her very much."
"Every time I wear my vest I marvel at the craftsmanship and love that you put into it and it is the best sort of armor to go out into the world with! I've never been able to find ready-to-wear garments that fit both my shoulders and bust well, and it is absolutely magical to have something that is made for my exact shape. Your support and joy in making clothes that reflect and fit me was a wonderful experience!"
"I hired Myriam to create a custom jacket for me last year, and it was a singularly amazing experience. She expertly worked with me to translate my design ideas into a beautifully fitted, stylish piece. She even worked with me to incorporate some of my art into a printed silk interior! It's a show-stopper jacket, and I love when the summer season slips slowly into fall so l can wear it again. I would recommend her to anyone. You won't regret it!"
"Marcela is a true artist, with every stitch and detail reflecting her impeccable craftsmanship and dedication. Her sparkling personality makes collaborating an absolute joy, and her designs always surpass expectations, leaving everyone in awe. You feel lucky to own a piece of her work."
"I had the absolute pleasure of working with Marcela on two custom jackets, and I could not love them more! Throughout the process Marcela really listened to what I was looking for, and provided me with creative options, clear communication, and regular updates along the way. In the age of 'fast fashion,' it was such a wonderful experience to work with a talented designer to create pieces I will cherish for a lifetime."
"A wonderful experience with Myriam, who custom-designed a beautiful suit for me. Wearing it gave me confidence that I looked my best.
She's talented and her kindness shines through in everything she does. I'm so happy to support her as my couturier!"
"As a personal stylist working with clients of all shapes and styles, I refer to Marcela time and again because I know they will be in the best hands. Having a piece made by Marcela is an unforgettable experience. Her process honors the client's preferences, creativity, and essence. Not only do you get to wear a work of art as the final result, but you also feel confident, celebrated, and more alive!"
"Ever since I discovered your Wild Woman collection, I have been truly impressed by your talent and how you approach fashion design as an art form. Your attention to detail and craftsmanship are remarkable, and the blouse you made for me is amazing. Every time I wear it, I feel special—not just in the clothing, but in my own body. Thank you for your artistry and dedication!"
