About Us

X Wear Designs unique creations began in June of 2012. Sylvia Alvarez, dance mom and creator of X Wear Designs, worked 23 years for corporate America in the beauty and cosmetic industry. Although she enjoyed her work, she felt she was not using her creativity to its fullest potential and from unexpected circumstances came a blessing in disguise. Sylvia devoted this extra time to create something new and unique for her daughter. Utilizing the basic simplicity of swimwear and adding her own ingenious twist and flare, she created the perfect "dance top". Her daughter's new "Xtop" became so popular among her friends that Sylvia decided to take this interest to the next level. She took 30 hours of sewing classes to brush up on her skills from high school days and sewed these Xtops day and night for her daughter's friends. After many hours of sweat and tears, trial and error, joy and elation, she has been fortunate enough to launch a much loved design that is being well received, worldwide. Sylvia is very excited and grateful for this new venture in her life and appreciates all the support thus far.


Special thanks to all the amazing dancers (you know who you are) who have supported and contributed to the beginning of Xtops and X Wear Designs!
