Gustavo Cadile Fashion Designer
Gustavo Cadile is an Argentine fashion designer.
Born in Junin, Argentina, he began his career in Buenos Aires at the age of 17, where he studied and worked with Manuel Lamarca. At 23 he was given a ticket to fly to Miami on vacation, a trip that would change his life. He is quoted saying "I fell in love with Neiman Marcus", and returned to Argentina to say goodbye to his family.
After returning to Miami he began working with Neiman Marcus, organizing shows and sales. After receiving his degree from the International Fine Arts College in Miami he designed a dress that was published in a News paper and caught the eye of Egon von Furstenberg (then-husband of Diane von Furstenberg).
He graduated and then spent three and a half years in Italy working with many of Milan's famous fashion houses. He later worked with Perry Ellis in New York.
He has dressed Catherine Zeta-Jones, Geena Davis, Kate Walsh, Roselyn Sanchez, Jewel, Demi Lovato, Kim Kardashian, Emily Deschanel, Dania Ramirez, and Eva Longoria. His collections can be found at Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, and many boutiques and specialty stores in North America.

Jamandreu made his debut as a movie costume designer in 1942, working for leading lady Zully Moreno in a movie named Historia de crÃmenes ("Crime Story"). He followed that by designing for El muerto falta a la cita ("The Dead One Missed the Appointment"), released in 1944, and in 1947's El misterioso TÃo Silas ("The Mysterious Uncle Silas"). Jamandreu,
He began his friendship with Eva Duarte before she married populist leader Juan Perón in 1945. Their relationship was initially of a business nature, and Jamandreu began a long series of designs for the actress and, later, First Lady. He became her confidant, and viceversa. His friendship with Eva Perón was dramatized in Juan Carlos Desanzo's Eva Perón: The True Story (1996); he was portrayed by actor Horacio Roca.
Following a relative absence from Argentine cinema credits during the 1950s, Jamandreu became more active as film fashion designer during the 1960s, when he worked in six films. Between 1969 and 1995, he retired from designing clothes for film, but he debuted as an actor in 1980, participating in a movie named Una Viuda descocada ("A Crazy Widow"). In 1986, he acted in Soy paciente ("I'm Patient"), but that film was never released because the producers could not finish recording it.
In 1996, Jamandreu's last work as a film costume designer was displayed in Argentine theaters, when Amor de otoño was released. Jamandreu had been working in the Amor de otoño production when he died from a heart attack, on March 9, 1995.

Christopher Essex (April 1945 – 13 September 2006) was an Australian costumer and designer whose client list included Tina Turner, Phyllis Diller and Dionne Warwick.

Alan Faena was born to a Syrian Argentine family in Buenos Aires, in 1965. His parents became prosperous textile manufacturers and in 1985, Faena established VÃa Vai (a casual wear design label and boutique).
VÃa Vai prospered, and by the late 1990s, the firm's 40 outlets in Argentina and numerous others in Brazil, Chile, France and Italy grossed around US$30 million in net sales. Faena sold the chain in the year 2000, after which he relocated to the resort city of Punta del Este, Uruguay. Capital from the sale of VÃa Vai allowed him to approach renowned French designer Philippe Starck with a concept for the creation of a hotel, residential and cultural complex in the newly renovated Puerto Madero docklands of Buenos Aires. This association, in turn, secured the interest of New York-based Russian developer Len Blavatnik, who made US$100 million available for the development of the "Faena Arts District."
The first segment of the district, the Faena Hotel+Universe, was opened in 2004, and in 2005, Puerto Madero lots were purchased for the development of El Aleph, a residential and cultural complex, and El Molino, residences built in a former silo and designed by Norman Foster. These investments were followed in 2008 by the purchase of the Hotel Lago Moreno, in scenic Bariloche, for the purpose of a similar (though smaller), cultural, hotel and residential complex in that Andes range city.
Though Faena's future development plans had been affected by the international real estate crisis that erupted in 2008, the El Aleph complex has been garnering the second-highest sale prices in Buenos Aires: around US$5,400 per square meter (US$500 per sq ft).
The most recent Faena Art District project, opened in September 2011, involves the transformation of another early 20th century building: Los Molinos, which houses the new Faena Arts Center with exhibitions by Ernesto Neto and many more artists of international acclaim.
Faena is a member of the Tate International Committee and the Tate Latin American Acquisitions Committee.[7] He created the "F Awards for the Arts" in 2006: a program that awards subsidies for interdisciplinary projects designed by emerging local artists.
