Álvaro Rivero Rivero (1998, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria) spent his childhood surrounded by various creative forms, such as theatre, painting and music, among other disciplines. It wasn't until 2014 that he started in fashion, where he discovered this world through some pattern and fashion books and with which he remembered his grandmother's passion for dressmaking.
At that time he began a learning path through different specialities, from hand sewing, tailoring, cutting and identification of fabrics, until he reached his great passion, pattern making and made to measure designs, where passion and dedication go hand in hand.
