LATIN AMERICAN FASHION DESIGNERS

YENNY BASTIDAS

At Yenny Bastidas, the eponymous brand was born from an inspiration drawn from the traditions and culture of her country, with the idea of ​​creating a ready-to-wear line for women who love color and texture. Since graduating with a degree in fashion design in Caracas, Venezuela, in 2003, Yenny Bastidas has embarked on a mission: to help shape and define sustainable luxury in Latin America.

Yenny Bastidas studied fashion business at the Marangoni Institute in Milan. Upon returning to Venezuela, she launched her own brand. In 2014, she assembled a team of talented women working from her studio, as well as satellite teams of artisans working in other parts of the country. With her values ​​and principles, she inspired her team in Chivacoa and employed local women, providing them with the tools to become independent professionals. Today, she has proven that sustainability is possible.
