Auralis Herrero-Lugo is the mastermind behind Auralistudio. Since she was a little girl growing up in her native Puerto Rico, constant creation has been at the core of all her endeavors. Possesing an inherited strong creative spirit forged upon generations of creative independent women in her family ,her quest for fashion design began at the age of ten when her mother would produce the dresses her daughter would sketch at her atelier. Naturally, this evolved into formal design studies at Moore College of Art and Design in Philadelphia. After successfully finishing her studies, Ms. Herrero-Lugo moved to New York City where she has worked for various contemporary labels such as Susana Monaco & Maridade. But after more than five years in the fashion industry, at a time of deep reflection having witnessed firsthand the impact on the planet’s natural resources the fashion and textiles industry exerts, Ms. Herrero-Lugo decided to finally take matters into her hands and combine her deep commitment to the conservation of the planet resources at the same time allowing her creative genius brings to life enticing designs.
Consequently, Auralistudio was born, out of the designer’s necessity to use the tools acquired over the years and employ them towards improving the fashion industry by using our planet resources wisely.
