How did you become a designer?
I got into fashion design by chance. An opportunity arose three years ago when I was living in Barcelona. I was working in illustrating children's books (I still do) when I got an invitation to join an iconic fashion brand in Miami, FL that was just starting out. Beautiful People is a new venture; a family business that started just this year after we realized our clan’s deep passion for discovering new, exciting pieces every day. We thought, "Why not create them?" And here I am. Here we are.

What’s your inspiration?
As an illustrator with an avid imagination I see each member of my family as a character. We are all so different and so alike at the same time. I design for each one of us. Inspiration can hit me any given day in the least expected situations: when I'm stuck in traffic, while walking around my neighborhood, on an airplane, and so on.

What’s your hometown?
Venezuela

If you had to pick a favorite design from your collection, what would it be and why?
"Grown-Up Yone" has to be my favorite piece in the whole Capulet collection. It is modern, large enough to fit my whole life in it, and it can be show-stealing in what we like to call an unclassical-classical way. "Little Rose" is another favorite one. She's just lovely!

What are you wearing right now?
Dark wash jeans, cream silk top with pleated front and a comfortable pair of chocolate brown flats (pointy toe!)

ThisNext.com Featured Multitasking Maria Handbag

If you are struggling to find the absolutely perfect bag for everything, including your laptop, cell, camera, along with letter sized documets, school work, etc. then search no further. This bag by Beautiful People is your answer. "Multitasking Maria" is a gorgeous distressed leather shoulder bag, with interesting details, such as texture creating folds and pleats, placed in perfect areas for a superbly stylish look. There are two very large compartments, that both close with magnetic closures. It is almost as if this is two bags in one! It is lined with soft cotton fabric that is so luxurious to the touch. The two pockets in the front do not close, but are perfect for a water bottle, or anything that is as wide as your hand. My hand fits completely inside of the front pockes (and I have large hands for a woman). The gold tone hardware makes it look very glam and up to date. The comfortable straps do not fall off from your shoulder as you are walking around (I get VERY annoyed by this). There is a cute leather and gold tone metal logo hanging from the straps, that is subtly stylish, and never overbearing. This bag is shown here in the color "Petra" but is also available in two more neutral colors, "Umantao," and "Grisado." It is also available in these pretty Spring colors: "Camel," "Strawberry," "Apple," "Mustard," and "Oatmeal." See the website to see the color swatches. Another great feature is the fact that when you set it down, it sits nicely on a table or counter, without toppling over. Overall, this is a perfect all around bag that can truly go from day to night and be used for almost anything, and by any woman with any lifestyle! It could also be used as a diaper bag for new mothers.
