If a sheer work of art is what comes to mind upon viewing any of the designs of Carasan, then you have called to mind a comparison that is not far from the truth, as the designers are inspired by art and nature in all that they create for their line. Staying true to their commitment of providing quality not quantity, Carasan will never be a mass–market company. Says Cassandra, "It is like buying art. Does your client buy original art, a limited edition lithograph or does she buy a mass–produced print? Our line is for free–spirited and self–assured women who are youthful at any age and want to wear high quality, one–of–a–kind designs." Their inspiration dates back to 1920's designers Erte and Fortuny. Offers Terri, "The Carasan line is one that transcends time. These are items you will want to pass down to your daughter. The Carasan woman is the soul of a Victorian socialite born into the body of an urban artist. She is a woman of today who wants fun, exciting clothing that will last season after season."

Carasan epitomizes today"s young American Couture, transcending time with its authentic creations and looking back into history for inspiration, not just for their designs, but also how we all impact the world in which we live forever.

Terri and Cassandra Rosenthal are the mother–daughter design duo who are the faces behind this small, but internationally known label. When she could not find a job in New York City, after moving there to attend college, Cassandra asked her mother to go into business with her. They started Carasan Designs LLC when Cassandra was only 18 years old and had just begun attending classes at the Fashion Institute of Design in New York City. She has since graduated from F.I.T with honors, receiving her Bachelor"s of Science degree. While attending college she fell in love with New York and made it not only her home but also, the home for Carasan, which is now based in Brooklyn. Terri holds down their studio at her southern home base at the family's small farm in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. You may also run into her while she commutes from West Virginia via the train to New York a few times a month.
Carasan's garments and one–of–a–kind jewelry have been worn by celebrities such as Tia Texada and Alysia Reiner. Since beginning operations in 2001, Carasan has been involved with the Golden Trailer Awards Show, has had placement in independent films, and has been seen in numerous magazines.

MCRS is an interwoven brand created from street culture and fashion. The core market for the brand is late teens and mid–twenties inner–city guys and girls. According to the designer / president (Edwin Nunez) the brand caters to the young fashion–head, who is interested in or embraces extreme sports. The MCRS division takes its name from its parent company House of Macoris (M C R S). The House of Macoris originates from two influential cities in the Dominican Republic: San Pedro de Macoris and San Francisco de Macoris. Aside from the cities tropical attributes, Nunez was mostly interested in the fact that these two towns continuously bear the “rags to riches” story, as they produce rising stars periodically. These are two towns of hard working people whose efforts go recognized. For that reason, Nunez hopes to bring the magic of Macoris to New York, the city of dreams and moreover to the rest of the world.

(#132)   Ana Segura Segura

Annie S. Intimates
Intimate apparel that'll leave you sleepless...

With a passion for design, Ana Segura's visions were influenced by a mother's tradition. The lessons learned at a very tender age are in result – not made to fit daddy's little girl.

From the beginning, the Segura household stood strong by their craft. The Bronx family's needle and thread have been handed down for three generations. And since the age of nine, Ana had chosen to embrace the fashion world with all its sensibilities. Realizing this has taken her on a journey to redeem her future title – Renown Fashion Designer.

From the halls of NYC's High School of Fashion Industries to Boca Raton's Lynn University, Ana together with the help of outstanding colleagues and professors honed her creativity and brilliant design sense. As her exuberating talent succeeded, everyone crossing her path had no choice but to take note. And thus, Annie S. Intimates was born.

Intimate apparel is the name of her game. From Baroque and Rococo to Victorian, and back again to Regency, Annie S.' inspiration is drawn from history's most show stopping periods. Her Gothic–Chic collection is bold, enticing, and most importantly – couture. Style tribe – Absolutely not! Romantically theatrical, one Annie S. Intimates event will leave you enraptured.

Every garment and every piece is sewn in highlight of the confidence, charisma and allure of a woman. Transient creations of their kind, harmonized on the dance floor and embodied in the bedroom – the Annie S. Intimates designer label encompasses beauty.

(#396)   Mark Seamon

The Love Shine line of handbag, totes and backpack designs was founded in 1994 by Mark Seamon and Mike Gonzales in New York in the basement of a Spanish Harlem apartment building. The design duo began creating one–of–a–kind bags out of hand dyed canvas for friends and family as a sideline hobby to take their mind off their their other careers of cooking (Mark) and dancing (Mike). The response to their products was robust and they began getting special requests and orders from friends of friends and later small boutiques. Thus, a small business was born.
In the beginning, many of Love Shine's designs were inspired by the travels of Seamon and Gonzales. From Mexico to Japan, they found inspiration and ideas. They brought back from Mexico beautiful rolls of brightly colored nylon mesh and oilcloth (a waterproof material decorated with images of flower or fruits that is traditionally used as table covers). They also collected images, trims, and other treasures from Japan, Greece and Spain.

As time progressed, they developed a line of striking Love Shine mesh totes and oil cloth accessories (wallets, dop kits, etc). In addition to designing handbags, purses and totes in soft cottons and upholstery fabrics, they continued to create new canvas and oil cloth backpacks and "day bags" with funky images.

In 1997, Mark Seamon opened a Love Shine retail and workshop in the East Village of Manhattan. In addition to the wonderful bags and accessories found at Love Shine, the studio–shop–showroom has also been the site of numerous sidewalk fashion shows, special events and art installations.

Welcome and thank you for your interest in the upscale, urban, chic collection of JESUS JUICE COATURE. Obviously, COATURE is purposely misspelled and attributable to the jump–off of our outerwear. We take extreme pride in our custom designs, our subtle flyness, our big city sophistication, AND, most importantly our vision. This enables our looks to be futuristic when compared to the other collections in the marketplace! Rather than follow the trends, we set them. We introduced the same color bomber combinations (same color leather and authentic furs) and next year you will see various companies doing what we did last year – while we'll probably be tourists on Jupiter looking for innovative inspirations! Again, thank you for your support in catalpulting JESUS JUICE COATURE!


JJC's olive green butter soft leather with matching authentic Fox fur throughout zippered hood.

JJC's cranberry suede bomber with matching authentic Fox fur trimmed hood. The piping, wrists and waist are all cranberry leather.
