BACKGROUND
Mariana was born in New York where she pursued her studies at the Fashion Institute of Technology. Being raised in the Hamptons with an Argentine and European heritage, Mariana’s style was influenced by the glamor and high society people from around the world. With most of her family still residing in Buenos Aires, Argentina, she frequently visits the country and is tainted by its alluring culture and lifestyle. After many years of working for several high-end boutiques, showrooms, and styling agencies, Mariana decided to finally launch her own line.

Mariana’s designs allow a woman to show her character and express her personality through unique style and elegance.

IF YOU COULD DRESS ANY CELEBRITY WHO WOULD IT BE AND WHY?
Sheikha Moha of Qatar or Queen Rania of Jordan. I have always been greatly inspired by the royal women of the Middle East. Their beauty, strength, worldly influence, mystery and opulence are a perfect representation of the Mariana Valentina woman.
