Bowtie Menswear LLC
Creativity meets healing
My journey has been filled with challenges, but my passion for design and craftsmanship has always been my lifeline. I have a diverse background that includes business, cosmetology, modeling, and fashion design. I embrace the art of sewing through training in pattern-making and alterations, allowing me to transform my experiences into beautiful creations.
FOUNDER/CEO
HOW IT ALL GOT STARTED
Bow Tie Menswear LLC was founded with the vision of creating a unique brand. The journey began with a shirt from my closet, which I transformed into my first bow tie. Utilizing my sewing skills, I started making bow ties in a small bedroom at home while recovering from a heart attack in 2015.
While admiring one of my creations, I came up with the name "Bow Tie Menswear," which reflects the essence of bow ties and men's accessories. Trusting my vision, I expanded a range of products and developed a deep passion for the concept of a bow tie company. As the business continued to grow, more ideas were planned for the future, including opening stores and factories worldwide.
MY INSPIRATION
I draw inspiration from reflecting on the amazing creations I make. My goal is to design fashion that elegantly enhances people's beauty.
