Renata Gasparian Lima, Owner & Co-Founder of RENATA by Renata Gasparian

Renata Gasparian Lima is the owner and co-founder of RENATA by Renata Gasparian, a women’s ready-to-wear collection based in Charlotte, NC. Renata draws inspiration for her brand from her native country of Brazil and the vibrant culture of India. All of her pieces are handmade and boast beautiful colors, patterns and textures. Renata gives us a glimpse into her life growing up in Brazil and eventually landing her dream job at Daslu, a luxury department store in Sao Paulo. At the time, Daslu was considered by many as the mecca of fashion. Renata ultimately moved to the U.S. with her husband where she had to, in many ways, rebuild her life. She stayed in touch with her Brazilian connections and began selling their clothing lines in the states. Ultimately, it was her husband who urged her to start her own line of clothes. In 2020, she launched her clothing label and has continued to grow it over the past four plus years.
