WHO WE ARE

Maria Pinto is a fashion futurist and artist that believes women should “cultivate their eye and explore their own look”, celebrate themselves, and find confidence in embracing their own unique image.

Initially differentiating herself styling iconic women for breathtaking luxury events, (First Lady Michelle Obama, Oprah, Brooke Shields and many other inspirational leaders) in 2013 Maria recognized that women were evolving their own sense of power and confidence leading her to start a movement of sustainable and beautiful fashion, that supports every woman’s need to feel fabulous every day.

This is a unique opportunity to join early and make a significant impact—sharing in the success while benefiting from the strength of the Maria Pinto brand, a product that deeply resonates with its target audience, and strong, rapidly growing sales momentum.
