About me

Brief notes

“…After a deep breath, I opened my eyes to that immensity of the desert, where the sound of silence breaks the eardrums at the cry of the wind, where the soul amplifies its voice and the meeting is inevitable……and there, I decided to break with my past to start a new cycle, a new life, where I knew that I had finally found my creative way, the one that walking it would take me to the origin of who I am, to what I had sought so much.” – Veronica Gutgar

 

I have always been passionate about beauty, my mother and grandmother taught me quality in the choice of garments from a very young age, they instilled in me the value of good sewing and the less is always more.

 

In 2010 I began to train in my great passion, pattern making. It was very clear to me that, in order to design and develop my creativity, it was necessary to be well trained in the technical part of this world, just as those I admire so much and who are my greatest inspiration had done: Cristobal Balenciaga, Josep Font and Sybilla. A training that continues to be constantly updated to date, including, in addition to traditional methods, avant-garde methods of Japanese origin.

In 2013 I entered the world of Haute Couture at the hands of Manuel Espuch, working as a pattern maker and cutter in his Atelier in Alicante for 5 years. There, together with dressmakers and seamstresses with extensive experience, I learned the ins and outs of sewing. They transmitted all their knowledge to me, being able to complete my training as a dressmaker.

 

In 2017 I decided to take a leap and bet on my own firm, a conscious and sustainable firm, born with the purpose of offering an alternative to all those women who are interested in and value well-made garments, exquisite pattern design and where details are relevant. . Both the use of natural fibers and personalized treatment are characteristics that complete what the Verónica Gutgar brand is.

 

In this same year, I give birth to a new project that will complete my purpose. I’m talking about my School: Gutgar Experience. In it I offer each of the students all my knowledge about pattern making and sewing, fulfilling another of my dreams and vocations: to be able to give everything that has been given to me.

 

My constant innovation in pattern making opens borders, and the Japanese master Shingo Sato, pattern maker for Azzedine Alaïa during its golden age in the 80’s and pattern maker for Tussardi for more than 10 years after leaving Paris, is interested in my work and in 2017 and 2018, he lands in Alicante to give his master classes to the students of my school. I became an organizer of these great international events, as well as a student at the same time, starting me in Japanese pattern making whose influence is very visible in all my creations.

In 2019 I begin and finish my studies of the Master TR Cutting, Shingo Sato’s Japanese pattern-making and sewing method, becoming one of the 3 spanish people who hold this title.

 

Today, at present, I continue exercising my great passion, offering all the women who put themselves in my hands the love I feel for this profession, with delicacy and mastery in my Atelier.

 

I continue training in pattern making, developing new ideas and shapes.

 

I teach everything I know to the students at my school, providing them with added value.

 

And I collaborate, since 2022, with my Master Shingo Sato, organizing his workshops throughout Spain.
