Coral Castillo, Fashion Designer

#WomenYouShouldKnow

   Clothing designer Coral Castillo made it to the final 4 on Project Runway (Season 19, Bravo). She finished as a runner-up.

   Coral is from Mexico City, then lived in Tijuana, Mexico. Her mother was a dressmaker, so Coral was introduced to creating custom-made clothing with fine fabrics at an early age.

   In 2001, the family moved to Los Angeles, and in 2005, Coral began designing, although she had no formal training.

   She pursued her passion by enrolling in The Art Institute of California - San Francisco. She graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree.

   Coral has been honored with many awards, and her designs published in numerous magazines and newspapers.
