A spotlight on some of our favorite founders and friends
Meet Carla & Carlos Valencia
Carla Valencia Design is the manifestation of Carla Valencia’s creative dreams and family history. As a child, she learned how to sew at a young age sitting alongside her wildly artistic grandmother, Martha. Her father Carlos was also heavily influenced by his mother Martha and is Carla’s partner in sewing crime.
Carla Valencia Designs
Today, Carla uses the old-world embroidery techniques passed down by the women in her family to create modern designs using the symbols and icons that influence her. From evil eyes to hamsas to snakes and sacred hearts – flowers and Frida and the moon and stars – the ideas spill out through needle and thread, creating truly one-of-a-kind clothing and accessories meant to last forever.
Lady Captain Fishing Shirt
Love the fishing shirts! We created a frame inspired by LC’s logo and fill it in with custom monograms and it just looks so fun on the shirts, such an easy piece to thrown on!
