Daniel Gonzalez, designer and founder, known for refined, emotionally resonant garments that merge structure, movement, and modern femininity. Based in Charlotte, North Carolina, he designs with a clear belief: clothing should feel right, reflect the wearer, and move with her. A former professional ballroom dancer, Daniel’s foundation in performance informs his design language—fluid yet intentional, graceful yet grounded. His first garment, made instinctively for a dance partner, led to the launch of Modelo Couture, a bespoke atelier for performers. In 2020, Daniel shifted his focus to ready-to-wear and made-to-order fashion, launching a label rooted in precision, emotion, and movement. His collections are known for clean lines, sculptural silhouettes, and quiet drama—often inspired by the adaptability and depth of women. Daniel leads every step of the creative process, ensuring each piece is crafted with care and clarity. For him, fashion is storytelling in motion.
