Maria Cornejo opened her first store in 1998. Her early work was influenced by Japanese avant-garde designers—she stated that she admired “their cutting, and the fact that they also broke new ground.” The jacket of this inventive suit design is crafted from curved pattern pieces that arc softly around the body.
