Let's put it this way: Maylé Vásquez's pieces are a gateway to the material, mythological and aesthetic culture of her native Dominican Republic. Based in Santo Domingo, her brand explores the unique ways in which Caribbean women can express elegance via clothes that can be layered, even in warmer weathers. 

And if you're a fan of combining textures, her sculptural dresses, skirts and jackets will be a welcome addition to your closet: just take a look at the many pleats, ruffles and braids in her ethereal pieces.
