Barbara B.Stylish

About me:

I was born in Como on April 14th, 1978 and moved at few months of life to France, where my parents were living from time. Textile entrepreneur's daughter, from early age I diped in the lively colours of the textile industries and developed strong propensity toward high quality fabrics. Very young, I cutted and sewed with my mother's help, clothes for myself, my dolls and my friends. The decision was taken:“I’ll be a fashion designer”. Back to Italy, I began textiles studies and got a diploma as textile designer to the famous textile school of Como: Setificio . I got notice for my pictorial capacities winning a special prize called by the Cavalier Boselli for the innovation and obtained the third prize for the print of a traditional Kimono promoted by Japanese company. Fabrics became to me a true passion and I specialized in weaving and prints. However, after a few experiences as textile designer I've decided to follow my passion for fashion doing the NABA fashion school in Milan. Here I learnt what fashion means to me, an interaction between art and psychology, simbols and communication...and how all of this was allowing me to express myself. I graduated with the maximum of the votes. I started to work in fashion companies as chef-assistant meanwhile I was teaching Textile in Como fashion school. I get remarkable experience in total look but soon I understand to need to express myself with my own product, more alternative, particular, artistic and researched. In 2003 I create B.Stylish, my own brand. In 2005 I own my company where besides be responsible for B.Stylish collections, I'm also a freelance fashion designer for others famous italian company’s brands.
