Lady Natasha Fines

Lady Natasha Fines is the visionary CEO, Founder, and Creative Director of Lady Fines Adaptive Fashion LLC and the Rebels with a Cause Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to advocacy, representation, and equality. Her journey into adaptive fashion was deeply inspired by her late aunt’s six-year battle with breast cancer, driving Natasha to merge her passion for fashion with a mission to create stylish, adaptive apparel. In her ant’s honor, Lady Natasha is dedicated to revolutionizing the fashion industry with adaptive designs that celebrate Emma’s legacy.

Born and raised in Tampa, FL, and of Puerto Rican descent, Natasha holds a Psychology degree from the University of South Florida (USF) and a Fashion Business Management degree from the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in New York City.

Natasha’s career began as a buyer at The Home Shopping Network, where her passion for fashion and understanding of human behavior flourished. She recognized a significant gap in the market for models with physical disabilities and adaptive fashion options. Her drive to fill this gap led her to deplete her savings to start Lady Fines LLC. Convincing her mother, Emeline Fines, to join as her business partner. Presently the mother-daughter duo has propelled the brand to new heights, championing inclusivity and innovation in fashion.

Lady Natasha Fines is now poised to launch Lady Fines Adaptive Fashion for a national debut on the world stage, having been hand-picked as a feature designer with during New York Fashion Week on September 8th. Natasha is transforming the fashion industry, making it more inclusive and representative for all while propelling Lady Fines LLC to unprecedented heights, championing inclusivity, innovation, and a new era in fashion

Emeline Fines

Emeline Fines is the dynamic COO, CFO, and Co-founder of Lady Fines LLC and the Rebels with a Cause Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to advocacy, representation, and equality. Born in Puerto Rico, Emeline’s journey into the fashion industry began in 2022 when her daughter, Lady Natasha Fines convince her to be her business partner to finance her pioneering adaptive fashion brand.

In 2024, Emeline made the bold decision to leave her high-profile role as Vice President of Sales for Southeast, Caribbean, and LATAM at Casa Dragones Tequila. This move allowed her to fully commit to the emerging Lady Fines Adaptive Fashion brand, bringing her extensive business experience and passion for innovation to the forefront. Emeline is also the CEO of Fines Spirits Consulting LLC. 

The inspiration for Emeline’s dedication to adaptive fashion came from her late sister Emma, who bravely battled stage 4 breast cancer. Driven by a desire to honor Emma’s legacy, Emeline joined forces with her daughter, Lady Natasha, to revolutionize the fashion industry with adaptive designs that cater to diverse needs.

In addition to her role in the business, Emeline spearheads advocacy initiatives through the Rebels with a Cause Foundation, ensuring their mission of inclusivity and innovation extends beyond fashion. Together, this unstoppable mother-daughter duo is elevating Lady Fines LLC to unprecedented heights, transforming the fashion landscape and championing a more inclusive world.
