Growing up in Toronto, Canada, Simone Vanessa has always been fascinated by everything from elegant to androgynous icons and inspired by global cultures. Learning to sew at a young age is what further sparked her curiosity and led her to explore the vibrant fashion industry and all that it has to offer. After establishing her business SIMONE VANESSA in 2013, she began defining her contemporary luxury brand by honing her design techniques and incorporating intricate details to enhance the look of each unique, personally hand-crafted, garment. With quality and elegance wrapped in each signature piece, Simone aims to inspire diversity, self-awareness, and confidence through fashion.
