Lazaro Perez is the designer behind his namesake collection Lazaro, and a true visionary in the bridal industry. His opulent creations are a sumptuous mix of dreamy romance, timeless elegance and diva glam. Lazaro is known for impeccable fits, exquisite hand embroidered wedding dresses, glamorous corset wedding dresses, and the use of luxurious fabrics that shimmer and dazzle.

Originally from Cuba, Lazaro grew up with a dress form and measuring tape in tow. He started his career as a pattern maker, designing custom dresses at a couture bridal shop located in the prestigious Gold Coast of Chicago. While attending University, Lazaro was awarded ‘Best New Bridal Design’ and later moved to New York as an apprentice for bridal house Galina-Bouquet. Following his apprenticeship, Lazaro became head designer for Richard Glasgow’s Riccio collection. In 1994, JLM Couture welcomed Lazaro into the JLM group to launch his iconic Lazaro collection.

Inspired by romance and timeless elegance, Lazaro has culled from Hollywood glamour and his experiences in theater and costume design. Lazaro’s latest collection is designed to enchant and seduce. He creates frothy ball gown wedding dresses and sculptured mermaid wedding dresses, with sheer panels that reveal just enough, but never too much. Lazaro combines exquisite materials to create unique fabrications. Sparkly wedding dresses shine under shimmering net, and layers of luscious lace offer tempting textures, bringing drama and sensuality to his long sleeve wedding dresses, ballgown wedding dresses, sexy wedding dresses, and everything in between.
