🧵Hailing from Ecuador back in the 70’s landing in East Harlem, he taught himself to sew, but more importantly, he taught himself to see 👁️ while his hands tell the story.
💃🏽 And, this season I get to be his walking Muñeca. This is dress #3 so far. Stand by.
There’s more coming. 💃🏽
👗Please follow all of the handles listed above. His artistry is unique and locally designed.

Great time with Alonzo (@imagebyzo ) today... At #starkidstvusa ... FEBRUARY portfolio building has started and the best part is all the outfits I get to use, the poses I get to play with, and the make up + hair style I get to add to the kids. It's so exciting. New model beginnings in 2026.
