QM: We are very happy and honored to have in an exclusive interview
Miss Johana Hernandez, Haute Couture Designer and owner of
Glaudi.
how are you?
Hernandez: HI everyone, I am so happy to be here and share
Quinceanera Magazine what I do. I am Glaudi.
It’s so great to see your designs and we know you’ve had a very
successful career. We would like to know more about you and what
inspired you to become a Fashion Designer. I know you came from
a humble family of immigrants from El Salvador.
Johana Hernandez: I am Haute Couture Designer and I participate in
the fashion show in Paris Fashion Week and I dress a lot of celebrities,
but I am came from a super humble beginnings. I grew up in Compton
and I always say from Compton to Paris. As you know, Compton
California is known for bad things but it’s also known for good things
like Serena Williams, who have done well coming from Compton. My
parents are Salvadoran and they started working at factory sewing
and I was always asking them a lot questions growing up in that
environment. I decided to learn how to sew. At the age of 18 years old, I
to the school FDIM and it was a God blessing when I got my first
interview and was hired for a head designer position. Since 18 years
have been traveling the world and designing for big companies
still living in Compton. I like to share this because you never
were yours dreams will be, and I have always appreciated my
beginnings and have been proud of all my parents did for me.
I am so happy when every girl comes to my store because I love to
feel that I blessed their dress in some way. It’s important putting God
first on everything and I think God put us first on anything we try.
My story is like being a miracle from God. I had a Quinceanera and
I designed my own dress. Here in Glaudi every girl can come in and
design her own dress with me and I will create it for them. I give them
a purity ring. We spend time with all our clients and become friends
and try to be a mentor for them.
With Glaudi, you do not simply buy a quinceanera dress; you have an
experience and we make sure
you have what you desire and
our team will make feel like a
Princess!
My quote is GOD
is Fabulous!
QM: Thank you Johana for
inspiring us with your story.
