Grandes Pasos Patronato de Nutrition

Nixia is honored and humbled to present her latest Varela LaMar collection at Fashion Week Panama 2012 for the benefit Grandes Pasos Patronato de Nutrition.  The presentation is scheduled for Saturday October 6 at 7:30  at the Islas de Atlapa, "Block B."  





Patronato de Nutricion is dedicated to fighting poverty in Panama's rural areas.  In particular, they are concerned about malnutrition in infants.  Their goal is to implement self-sustaining farms in these remote areas of the Republic.   They believe much can be achieved by educating subsistence-level farmers and organizing them into associations and cooperatives that will empower them to produce using techniques that are both more efficient and sustainable.  The ultimate production goal would feed and maintain individual households and provide enough products for commercial sale, thus guaranteeing to them a stream of income that will give them the opportunity to improve the qualities of their lives.  

The FWP 2012 Designers of Block B
Nixia Varela LaMar is proud to find herself in a Block of important designers who will certainly draw many fans of fashion.  Others in the "Block B" benefiting Patronado de Nutricion include high profile designers: Federico Visuette, Vergara and Vergara, Tatiana Uliantzeff and Helene Breebaart.

Residential Shoot in Costa del Este Part I

Varela LaMar August, 2012 Photo Shoot

In the final weeks leading up to Fashion Week Panama 2012, Nixia has busied herself with a Varela LaMar collection that will doubtless be received with spectacular enthusiasm.  However, this has not slowed her other projects including keeping local boutiques stocked, numerous interviews and two photo sessions.  Selections from a session at a private home appear on this post.  

Selections from the other session, outside of Panama City, will appear in a local magazine close to the time of FWP 2012 and is closely related to the thematic inspiration of the collection that will be seen on the runway at Fashion Week Panama.   

Please enjoy the below photographs from the Varela LaMar final photo shoot before FWP 2012 and check back for additional installments!

Add a Daring Splash!

Varela LaMar Belts

Excellently hand-crafted from the Varela LaMar atelier, Nixia's colorful belts will accessorize a wide variety of standard apparel; they dress up pants but are versatile enough to combine with skirts and dresses.  These are widely available in boutiques in Panama and may be made to coordinate with bridesmaid dresses.
