Gabriella Marina Gonzalez

Gabriella Marina Gonzalez is an uninhibited and exquisite fashion, footwear and accessory designer who continues to broaden her spectrum of materials but maintains focus on her unique shredding and applique techniques and hand leather work. Now on her sixth collection which, keeping true to her design aesthetic features her signature platform wedges that she has become most widely recognized for.

Some might say design is in GMG's blood. Her grandmother was a seamstress and her father a fashion designer. Growing up she was always around art and design and was encouraged to be creative. She has such a humble outlook denoting that she is neither artist nor designer, stating "I try not to consider myself anything; it's too restricting. These are the things other people have made me."

Naturally I'm head over heels for Gabriella Marina Gonzalez's amazing work. Those shoes!
