Alassie and Mara are creators at Costurero Real, a fashion brand based in Barcelona, Spain. They also have another brand called Uchronic Time, where they sell steampunk and gothic designs. Today, both projects are possible because of a team of around ten people who design, sew, paint and ship everything by themselves. You can find them at www.costureroreal.com.
