Camilyn Beth’s Mission Statement: “To design, manufacture & distribute quality garments to women around the world.” She uses the finest quality materials so the clothes can be worn time and time again. Her aesthetic is to create timeless & classic garments with a modern twist. Cami believes that her customers are beautiful inside & hopes that her garments promote their beauty & confidence. Camilyn Beth recently celebrated 5 years in business and 2 years in her location 73 S. Palm Ave in Sarasota. Cami sells both to wholesale and retail and works on “juggling” 4 collections (seasons). She has her 2017 Spring Collection available for sale while working on her 2018 spring for the upcoming “Buyer Shows.” The Camilyn Beth collection has a strong marketed presence on social media. In fact, her 1st order started in response to a tweet that resulted with a New Orleans store carrying her line. Cami’s formal education was in fashion design. After college she had opportunity to assist Swedish designer, Pär Engsheden, who designed the wedding dress for crown princess Victoria. Back in the US, she became motivated to create her own dresses when faced with attending 16 weddings in one year. The clothing line is currently manufactured in NY. Every garment is fully lined and, as special treat, each item sewn inside has a “line” such as “you are as fancy as fancy can be” in addition to a bar code with link to a song to be downloaded by the purchaser.
