"FASHION IS MY PASSION"

Her innovative Line of Swim Wear designs are creative by combining the provocative and

avant-garde aspects of today’s Fashion World.

​

Professionally, she has spent over 20-years using the curves of the human body as a canvas, drawing ideas from nature and cultures across the globe, as far away as Africa but Barbara began making bikinis for her Barbie dolls!  

​

With her degree from ESMODA, the School of Textile and Fashion Design in Cali, Colombia,

she not only designs swimwear that looks stunning but her clients say: they feel great and are very comfortable too!

​

Barbara says,

​

“All patterns are created and fitted to a real human female body,

adapting the material to behave naturally, accentuating the sensuality and femininity

of a woman’s body."

​

You’ll feel like you’re on a Catwalk, even walking around your own pool.

​

Like many business owners, Barbara Ramos began selling the swimsuits that she used to sew by herself to friends and family. 

Barbara says, “Many doors were closed to me.  Sometimes people do not believe in talent when they see that the business is small.”

But that all changed when the General Manager at the Historic Eden Roc Hotel on Miami Beach saw her portfolio and gave her a prime spot to display it to their prestigious guests.

That spark led to a demand in the resort industry, as well as personal clients eager to sport her Line

of customized swimwear.

​

Now Barbara, who also designs sportwear accessories, is the proud owner of BR Fashion Studio International.

Barbara says, “I always take a short trip around the place where I wish to sell my Line. I take a look at the people around and this way I assure myself that they will wear my designs.”

​

Her designs have been found in a plethora of Hotels in USA, Mexico and The Caribbean; including the Mandarin Oriental Miami and Mexico, Delano, Shore Club, Doral Golf & Resort. Conrad Hilton, The Ritz Carlton Ft Lauderdale and Puerto Rico, as well the W Hotels.  

​

Barbara’s passion for designing swimwear has been spotlighted on Univision Channel 23, MTV Latino, El Nuevo Herald, Deco Drive and more.

She uses her platform to bring awareness to HIV/AIDS prevention with MTV Latino as well as homelessness in the U.S., Colombia and Africa through different organizations.

 

Just one more reason to wear BR designs proudly!
