There are stories that inspire, but Patry del Alva’s story completely redefines the rules of the game in today’s fashion industry. After an impasse of two decades, the model from Tucumán and based in Santa Fe returned to the catwalks six years ago to demonstrate an absolute truth: when destiny is written, what is for you, follows you
Today, at 48 years old, she is experiencing her crowning moment after dazzling on the catwalks of Europe and establishing herself as one of the most influential figures on the continent.
The rebirth of a queen on global catwalks
Patry’s relationship with cameras and catwalks is not new. At the age of 19 she was crowned Queen of Tourism and, shortly after, she became the advertising face of a renowned international vehicle brand. However, she decided to pause modeling to prioritize her professional and family life.
Twenty years later, with the maturity, preparation and elegance that only time grants, Patry decided to go for his best version. His return was not subtle; It was a hurricane of sophistication.
The peak of this masterful return was recently experienced at Global Fashion Week in Europe, where Patry captivated the international press by parading an exclusive design by Pedro Salero, the recent winner of the Best Designer in the World award. With an imposing stage presence, she showed that beauty and talent have no expiration date.

«Coming back after 20 years showed me that it is never too late to fulfill your dreams if you prepare and work with passion. Today I have to export national fashion, but also bring the world to my roots»says the model and businesswoman.
A historic November for regional design
