ABOUT US

Carla Amaning claims to be the long lost child of Oprah and Gayle Winfrey-King. Unfortunately, she is still lost and has yet to inherit her gazillion dollar trust fund that she had hoped will enable her to blink and move from the world of corporate finance to become a fashion success story. 

This unfortunate incident, coupled with her vision and love for creating pieces that infuses conceptual and sculptural elements of design into timeless and classic shapes, led her to Milan where she studied fashion design at the Instituto Marangoni and then continued onto the Fashion Design Program at Parsons, The New School.  Each collection by C A R L A A M A N I N G is constructed to play with the definition of femininity by offering highly feminine clothes that adopts modern sculptural shapes with a hint of the conceptual.

Carla has worked with prominent fashion houses such as Ralph Rucci, J. Mendel, Maiyet, and Theory.
