About the designer
A Journey of Art, Design and Fashion
Baccio Couture, the brainchild of Fausto Altamirano, is a celebration of urban art and the female form. Altamirano's journey as a fashion designer began in his early childhood when he was encouraged to pursue his artistic aspirations by his creative parents. In his teens, he was commissioned to paint his first mural, which sparked his interest in street art.
After moving to Miami and obtaining a degree in art and design, Altamirano decided to combine his passion for painting, design, fashion, and technology into a unique creative vision. He developed a proprietary technique for hand-crafting garment decoration, including hand-painting and Swarovski crystal accents, to create truly original works of urban art.
In 2002, inspired by Miami's vibrant nightlife scene, art-deco architecture, and tropical greenery, Altamirano launched Baccio Couture. His designs are a bold departure from mainstream fashion, offering a unique and expressive way to wear street art. Each creation is one-of-a-kind, crafted from high-quality materials by skilled artisans who share Baccio Coutures’ vision.
Baccio Couture creations have won numerous awards and have been worn by celebrities such as Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, Ivy Queen, Roselyn Sánchez, Lele Pons, Ninel Conde, and Gaby Espino. Altamirano is a firm believer in the power of handmade fashion to complement each individual body, and his garments are proudly made in the USA to order.
Baccio Couture is more than just a clothing brand; it's a movement that celebrates the beauty and diversity of women. Altamirano's designs are a powerful way for women to express their unique style and individuality.
Baccio Couture is more than a dress, it's a piece of art that you can wear!
