Alexis at Garmany

Founded 2008 · Miami, Florida

Mediterranean Warmth, Miami Soul

In 2008, Alexis Barbara Isaias and her mother Ana Barbara returned from a Mediterranean island-hopping trip with a suitcase full of self-made dresses. The pieces Alexis had designed for the vacation drew so much attention that what began as a personal project became a brand. Working from a home office in Coral Gables — the Miami neighborhood where Alexis was born and raised — mother and daughter built their first Resort Collection together. By the following year, Alexis had landed on the racks at some of the country's most discerning boutiques.

From the start, Alexis Barbara Isaias saw a gap in contemporary women's fashion: too much of it felt cold, overly structured, or inaccessible. She wanted to create pieces that felt romantic and feminine without sacrificing modern edge — clothes rooted in the warmth of her Cuban-American heritage and the multicultural energy of Miami. Intricate lace became the house signature, sourced and detailed with the kind of care usually reserved for evening gowns but applied to everything from daytime maxis to cocktail dresses. Vibrant prints, body-conscious silhouettes, and fabrics that move naturally in warm air completed the vocabulary. Within a few seasons, the brand was in over 250 boutiques and luxury department stores worldwide, from Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus to Revolve and Moda Operandi.

The Collection

Lace, Print & Silhouette

01

Dresses

The heart of Alexis. From intricate lace midis to bold printed maxis and body-skimming cocktail silhouettes — pieces that transition from a seaside lunch to an evening out without missing a beat. The category that launched the brand and remains its strongest.

02

Jumpsuits & Rompers

Wide-leg jumpsuits, tailored rompers, and coordinated sets that carry the same feminine energy as the dresses. Lace detailing, bold prints, and relaxed silhouettes designed for women who want to make a statement without a hemline.

03

Tops & Separates

Lace blouses, ruffled tops, and printed separates that bring Alexis's romantic sensibility to everyday dressing. Pair with denim for the weekend or tailored trousers for the office — versatile pieces built around the same signature fabrications.

04

Resort & Evening

Where Alexis truly shines. Floor-length gowns with cascading ruffles, silk caftans, and vacation-ready pieces that capture the Mediterranean spirit the brand was born from. Every collection is designed with warm-weather living in mind.

The Aesthetic

What Makes Alexis Different

Alexis occupies a unique space in contemporary fashion: more romantic than the minimalists, more wearable than the couture houses. The brand's strength lies in three pillars that run through every collection.

Intricate Lace

  • The house signature fabric
  • Applied to dresses, tops, and jumpsuits
  • Detailed with couture-level precision
  • Romantic without being precious

Vibrant Prints

  • Inspired by global travel
  • Mediterranean and Caribbean palette
  • Bold florals and geometric patterns
  • Resort-ready colorways

Feminine Fit

  • Body-skimming silhouettes
  • Precise tailoring with comfort
  • Ruffled and draped details
  • Day-to-night versatility

"Miami has always been my home and its mix of culture and color makes Alexis what it is today."
