Liv Perez navigated the winding avenues of a career tangled with dreams and realities, finding her way to success in the fashion industry while defining her unique path. Raised in the sunny sprawl of Los Angeles, she was drawn to storytelling from a young age, inspired, it seems, by the glitzy allure of shows like Gossip Girl. Moving to New York for university, she harbored hopes of snagging a role at Teen Vogue—a plan that crumbled into something different when she landed an internship in the magazine’s entertainment department instead. “I was, like, ready to work my ass off,” she recounts, recalling how working in the fashion closet transformed her understanding of the industry.
Graduating from NYU in 2016, Liv’s experiences ranged from high-profile roles at Hermès and Glossier to creating content that resonated in the digital space. What began as a blog soon morphed into the “Let’s Get Dressed” podcast, reflecting her evolution in a world where purpose often feels elusive. “My journey was super non-linear, which I’m a big advocate for,” she notes, offering a glimpse into her belief that one’s career trajectory can—and maybe should—meander before it finds its destination.
In the midst of her busy schedule, Liv balances her professional endeavors with personal milestones. She fell in love with Alex Nachum, a connection rooted in their shared histories just minutes apart in L.A. Their engagement in the Colorado mountains felt serendipitous, a nod to their history. Reflecting on their romance, she acknowledges, “Great love stories are written over time,” as they transitioned from friends into partners. The idyllic setting of their wedding at Soho Farmhouse captures not only their love but the community that cherished them.
Liv’s life embodies the essence of adaptability, flourishing through her various roles while always curating a story that feels both authentic and purposeful. Fashion remains her love language, one that she translates with care onto her wedding day—each garment and detail meticulously chosen to weave the narrative of her journey. Her evolution traces more than success; it tells the pulse of a life well-lived, rich in experience, and endlessly creative.
