About Me


about Janine HernandezIt was once just a dream. When I was young and my amateurish skills in designing clothes were budding, I was constantly having this vision of creating gowns that would be worn by beautiful people. I sketched my dreams and sewed the artistic patches of that young yet moving vision…

The passion for creativity and beauty must have stayed with me throughout the years. The meticulous eye for details stayed with me, from sewing the dresses of my sister’s doll, to creating the wedding gowns of my new and loyal clients. I want people to see my personality in the gowns or suits I would create for them –- meticulous, attentive to details, emphasis on quality, unique.

My creations are the material representations of my dreams and aspirations. From a then young boy whose inspiration came from gowns displayed on the public market, to a now fashion designer who tries to make other people’s dream come true. I look up to the passion and diligence of Filipino designers in Dubai, and to the magnificence of Inno Sotto and Noli Hans, and has put all these passion and creativity to the gowns and suits that I now make.

Let’s weave our dreams together. Wear Janine Hernandez.
