Historic Jewel of Nashville

Fashion designer Manuel Cuevas is best known for his colorful garment designs for country and rock and roll stars, including Johnny Cash, Elton John, Burt Reynolds, Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan, Bono, Marty Stuart, Dwight Yoakam, Elvis Presley, Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, George Jones, Glen Campbell, and the Rolling Stones. Over 25 years he was visited in his studio and retail store, Manuel Couture, by these artists, in addition to kings from other countries and presidents. That historic building is free for relocation and preservation of the structure. Cuevas called it a “Historic Jewel for Nashville,” describing the rooms as “elegant, beautiful” and wishes that he was still in the building.
