Carolina Espaillat is making her name known as a fashion designer in Boston and beyond. But her love for fashion didn't start in the states, it started back home, in Santiago, Dominican Republic. From a young age Carolina remembers taking leftover fabric from her grandmother and using it to make little garments for her Barbie dolls. At 19 years old, her family decided to give her and her siblings more opportunity and a brighter future, which is how she ended up in Massachusetts. She worked hard, went to school for fashion design and made sure that all of her families sacrifices were worth it; and they were. Today Carolina continues to pursue her passion for fashion design and has had multiple fashion shows. A true example of the American Dream!
