"Go with what you've got and show it off." Caron's creations are designed to embellish your basics (big, small - bodacious, or itty bitty). "Wearable art" is the way she describes all this craziness. "It's like painting with fabric."

Caron was born in Canada and started designing at an early age. Recognizing her innate talent for fashion and the visual arts, her father bought her first Singer sewing machine as a birthday present at the age of ten. But instead of going to the Fashion Institute of Technology New York as he had hoped, Caron chose a less traditional path. She had to find success in her own way. So she worked her way up through the sports apparel industry until she finally was ready to make a go of it on her own.

Each of Caron's fabric buying trips begin with the donning of the right stones: Labradorite for creativity and vision to be exact. She peruses the LA fabric district in search of inspiration. Every fabric has its own story (sometimes even their own names!) in Caron's world.

Traveling back up Highway 1 to her Santa Barbara "uncorporate hut-quarters", she's already begun designing in her mind's eye. And in the tranquility of the zen garden outside her office she begins to fold them, pin them, cut them into something that will make women their most "beautimous" (Caron's vocabulary for fabulous, gorgeous, and divinely beautiful).
