Located in the heart of downtown Phoenix and tucked away in the west corner of Hazelwood, you can find a lady blissfully sitting in her vintage red-bricked furniture store, Phoenix Metro Retro. However, she is not just your average store owner because you will be discovering a local one-of-a-kind jewelry designer as well.

Mabel Cortez (FIDM Apparel Industry Management Alumna) is the designer and owner of Mabella Chic, a women’s line known for its sexy, yet comfortable fabrics. The collection has been selected to show at The Hispanic Women Conference in Phoenix, and is one of 10 emerging designers showing at Phoenix Fashion Week in October.
