Meet Nephi gacia, a 32-year-old fasion designer and father of three who lives Orange,California.
Nephi who has been designing for the past nine years,used to focus on high fasion."but once i had kids,it started to feel like the industry wasn't really working for me."
Last year,after family planned a trip to Disney world ,Nephi's 6-year-old daughter Lili asked him to make a costume she could wear to the park.
He made her a Fariy Godmother dress from scrap fabrics and she wore it on family's day trip. People instantly started freaking out.
Some visitors even asked for her autograph."The following day, I got an order for ten costumes."
"Lili really loves the transformations dresses," he said."And my son really loves to be dressed as the villains, especially Gaston"
To make this dreamy veiled vision a reality.Garcia used some wire and two fake birds. “I altered the birds' wings to make them look like they were flying,” he said.
It takes Garcia roughly four to six hours to make one of his children's costumes.
"I hate repeating designs, so I always try to vary each dress so that they're unique," he said.
And Garcia makes adult costumes ,too.
He prides himself on high-end high-end materials.
Garcia uses a lot of organic silk and get materials shiped form Europe."I don't charge cheaply ,but i also don't deliver a cheap product",his children's costumes start $600, and his adult looks begin at $1,800.
For Garcia , his requests start at home.
"My daughter really wants me to make frog costume that turns into a tiana ballgown ," he said.
"And my wife suggested that I make a Princess Aurora derss that starts with her peasant dress .transforms into her pink dress ,and then transforms into her blue dress."
but his dream is to share them with the world.
"I hope that someday i can make costumes for Broadway shows or live-action movies," Garcia said ."But I will never give up making pieces for people who are not in the dustry - I like to give them quality outfits that they can't get anywhere else."
