Something characteristic of Carlo Carrizosa is the seeking for astonishment to be produced by his work, this is ultimately his leitmotiv, to be able to transmit something different through clothing.

Carlo Carrizosa, graduated with honours as a Fashion designer in 2009, his thesis (Transfiguration) inspired by the architect Mario Botta got a place in the young designers runway of chocoline (circulo de la moda de Bogotá ) and in the Monterrey Fashion in Mexico, in both events his collections, faithful to his haute cuture aesthetic, got excellent critics and was invited to be part on several fashion productions.

Aged 20 years old, Carrizosa already has 4 collections on his growing portfolio, several projects of artistic direction and styling. Additionally, he has developed market studies works for the italian brand A-style in Colombia and has assisted in the design workshops of Hernan Zajar and the spanish brand Casta&Puro.CARLO

LOVEThis collection evokes dress making motifs used at the turn of the 20th century in

Colombia. Following this period trend, flowers have a relevant roll in the compositive

component of the outfits, these have been almost literally transplanted to the garments

in a careful exercise of "couture gardening".

Inspired by the Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s* novel “ Love in the Time of Cholera”.

Muslins, chiffons and organic cottons are transformed in the best land

for the organza and satin flowers to be

planted. Ultimately the concepts of fragility

and delicacy, which are typical motifs of

that time, are confronted.

TRANSFIGUR-ATION. The Gala* nature of this collection is

inspired in the architect Mario Botta.

them into this fashion work.
