| The Power of a Rebel 250cc |
Some may wonder how a 300 pound air cooled twin engine could have enough
power to change the world. It can. It did. It changed mine.
My first experience as a motorcycle rider was on a Rebel 250cc and my life
has never been the same. I found the freedom of the
ride, and the courage to live my life and follow my dreams.
A whole new world opened. And with it, came new friends,
with new experiences, and leather.
I needed it. I wanted it.
My search to find leather apparel which was stylish, fashionable, and would fit
my womanly stature with all of my "curvatude" had begun.
I wanted to stand out amongst the sea of black biker apparel.
I also wanted to wear leather which was soft, luxurious, and would feel
like a second skin when out riding. Designs which would lift and support,
hug all my curves, and make me feel beautiful and sore with confidence.
I couldn't find it. So, I founded Sexy Skins.
Enjoy the freedom of the ride!

| Look Great! Feel Great! |
Because we believe
you deserve to look great and feel great whether you are a size 2 or size 20,
man or woman, we offer the Made-to-Fit Line of clothing, and Custom designed
clothing.
 Would you like to wear a halter
like the Heaven but feel as if you need to cover your tummy?
 Do you have a petite frame
with a large bust so when you purchase something that will fit you
up top, the rest is just too big?
 Or, maybe you are smaller
on top, but the rest of you is not-so-small making it nearly impossible to
find anything that will fit both.
Not a problem!
We will turn something you like, into something you love, and make it to fit you.
The Made-to-Fit Line has many designs to choose from, with more than one type
and color of leather available too, and everything we make, we do by hand, to order,
right here in the USA.

Contact Us! Tell us your thoughts, ideas,
concerns ~ we want to hear from you! We want you to look great, and feel great! |

A Great Fit Made-to-Fit |
The Sexy Skins
Made-to-Fit Line is when we take the pattern of an existing Sexy Skins
design and alter it to fit your body, type, and size, and then customize;
you choose the type of leather, and the color of leather, and small changes
to the design are free, therefore we can close up the front to cover your
tummy, change a cup size, cinch it here, and tuck it there.

| Sexy Skins Designer, Lisa Cantalupo |
Lisa's fashion experience began in her childhood designing and
creating clothing and costumes with her mother, a sample maker
for a Boston fashion designer. Lisa's experience continued when
she attended Massachusetts College of Art and Design where she
graduated with a BFA in Fashion Design and was the recipient of
numerous awards of distinction for her talents in fashion design
such as; the Massachusetts College of Art and Design Award for
Excellence in Design, the Lord & Taylor Dress Design Competition
Scholarship Award, and an internship with Leslie Fay in New York City.
|
It was in 1991 when Lisa made her professional
debut at The Boston Designers Collaborative Press Expo
Fashion Show, showcasing her collection which ranged from swimwear
and sportswear, to eveningwear and wedding gowns. Boston's leading
fashion designer and BDC founder who currently resides in Europe
showing his latest fashions in Paris and Italy, Geoffrey B. Small
said of Lisa's collection, "very hip...very original, slick and
elegant....tutto Perfetto!" and compared her work to the likes of
Romeo Gigli, Blass, and Moschino.
|
Leather and suede became Lisa’s medium for creating
after receiving her motorcycle endorsement in 2004. Taking
her inspiration from the open road and motorcycle lifestyle,
the design of her first collection for the
Sexy Skins Brand created the perfect mélange between
motorcycle chic and high fashion, while demonstrating
her natural affinity with leather. |
Lisa’s
innovative and creative designs, distinctive style, and her
attention to detail, are recognized by industry professionals,
and sought after from those in the motorcyle, automotive, and entertainment
world. She created three custom designed jackets for international
superstar and master bike builder Alan Lee who showcased
his Skins on CMT's “The Chopper Challenge" television
show, as well as in numerous publications. |

Dedication,
to her craft and to her customer, is what sets Lisa
apart from the rest. “I have a passion for fashion – and for leather.
I love creating pieces my clients will love wearing,”
she says. “
I want them to be happy, and to feel fantastic
while wearing my designs. Then, I am happy.”

| A Message From Lisa |
In 2007, I watched as my sister died from Leukemia, and two months later, my mother from Cancer. Their last days on this earth will never escape my memory. Shortly after, I met a woman whose fight with breast cancer and personal experiences touched my heart deeply. Her story, along with the loss of my two loved ones, has inspired me to use my talent and ability to help make a difference. To read about the charities we support, Charities. |
