- Production Technology
- Camillet is a product that was made with embroidery techniques. The upper part of the dress was made with ixtle plant called "agave lechuguilla" worked to a spin while still raw. The lower part of the suit was worked in golden Chenille fabric to highlight the embroidery of the dress.
- Design Challenge
- The most difficult part of the elaboration of the dress was the making of the braids, the length and the sewing by hand in the corset. The braids had to have the same thickness and design to achieve a perfect and natural impression. Therefore, the braids had to be meticulously prepared multiple times to achieve the desired visual impact.
- Research

Getting the expected quality that I decided to accomplished. The goal is to impact and encourage the use of materials and textiles in the field of fashion and create new awareness and trends. The final products are extraordinary and it is due to the preparation and elaboration of the handmade on highlighting the raw material of the earth and the native artisan techniques of my culture.

This project promotes an unique and artistic vision of the contemporary preservation of the environmental. Is a product of feminine elegance that also promotes a message in the spectators and can be used as a reference for new generations.
- Project Duration
- Camillet project started in June 2019 in Jayuya Puerto Rico and finished in September 2019 in Coamo Puerto Rico.
- Operation Flow
- The role of the Camillet proposal is to reflect status and purchasing power. It also allows to dress those parts of the body that the designer wishes to highlight in the female silhouette while being influenced by the culture and building materials.
In contrast, clothing protects the person and allows them to keep a unique and attractive look for a special occasion. Beyond these functions, the Camillet dress also has symbolic values and purpose to spread a message of environmental preservation. - Team Members
