24FashionTV: Hi and welcome to 24Fashion TV! Please tell us a little about you and your background.
Isabela Vasile: My real name is Isabela Vasile, I was born in Romania in 1975 and lived there until I was 27. After I moved to Canada where I lived for 15 cold years.
Why America?
America was my dream since I was 13 and discovered it through James Dean in communist Romania. I am a huge James Dean fan, I relate to him so much! I felt that this is my real home. I was stuck there and in Canada and I only moved there to be closer to my home. Finally in 2018 I made my dream come true, after I sold my house and invested over 100,000$ to get an investor visa and move here legally.
What do you do?
I did art all my life, I draw since I was 2 and I make clothes since I was 5, I was dressing my dolls. I studied art in many forms: acting, dancing, photography, jewelry making. I’m also a writer, I published a few books. One is called Driven and is inspired form my life.
Wow, so you are multitalented person. Where did you start working as a designer for the first time?
I was beloved in Los Angeles, so I opened my store there. I thought Venice Beach was a good place to open my store but realized my designs are more fitted for Celebrities so I moved on Melrose Avenue in Hollywood.
Did you dress celebrities?
Yes, when I had my store in Venice somebody introduced me to a famous showroom that dressed celebrities and they loved me and also many celebrities loved my designs. I was dressing celebrities 3 months after opening my store, it was a huge accomplishment for me. Also I continued to dress famous people that came in my store on Melrose Avenue.
