The custom-made according to Adriana Granados, by some stages :
At the beginning, there is the desire to communicate emotions, then the making of colourful rough sketches, an essential step for all creation. The choice of materials functions of feelings is coming later. (...) Third step, last but not least, the making of the flat design on a pattern next the finishing on a model. In the end, a unique cloth for the biggest happiness of the client.

According to Adriana Granado, "the woman must be sexy but without any provocation, all vulgar aspects must be vanished". The designer prefers to choose fancy fashion rather than daze fashion.
The luxury, what does it mean for Adriana? "For me, there are two kinds of luxury. The ''outside'' luxury, which gives importance to outward appearance, in a seeming world. A higher quality product, exclusive and creative, which is different from everything else and offers a high quantity of personal rewards, as well for the one who wears the product as the one who made it. Then, there is the ''inside'' luxury, which is for me the only real luxury..."
