In the latest installment of the Vogue podcast, Gypsy Sport’s Rio Uribe offers up a lesson in making one’s dreams a reality—a skill the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund alum says he has been honing since childhood. “My family was very resourceful and all of our Halloween costumes were very makeshift,” Uribe tells Vogue’s Mark Holgate with a laugh. “Growing up, I was taught to be . . . a make-things-happen type of guy.” As Uribe explains, the first lesson in finding success outside of the classroom starts with believing in yourself. “I did not go to school and I did not get all of the internships, but I did always have the passion and desire to be in the fashion industry, and more importantly, to be a creator.” Here, on the heels of the designer’s Spring 2017 ready-to-wear show, tune in to get the full story you won’t find anywhere else, not even on the runway.
