How Our Garments Are Made...
Every garment we create is a journey of care, creativity, and tradition. From the first spark of inspiration to the final embroidered detail, each step is crafted with intention, skill, and love.
Finding Inspiration
Every piece begins with inspiration. From vintage samples, archival designs, and forgotten techniques, we pay close attention to motifs, stitch types, and details that carry the essence of each community. At the same time, inspiration comes from childhood memories, the colors of nature, and everyday experiences, blending personal stories with cultural heritage.
Our goal is to rescue these old techniques, bringing them back to life in garments that are modern, stylish, and full of character. Each new design becomes a dialogue between history and the present, a way to honor the past while creating pieces that are meaningful, wearable, and timeless.
Fabric Selection
Once a design takes shape, we choose the fabric. We work with high-quality, all-natural cotton and linen, carefully selected for softness, drape, and durability.
The feel of the fabric in our hands, the way it moves on the body, and its texture are all considered before a garment is made. Every piece is designed to be as comfortable as charming.
Embroidery & Samples
The embroidery is the heart of our garments. For each design, we create samples, experimenting with patterns, colors, and stitching techniques until we bring our vision to life.
At every stage, we check quality carefully, ensuring that fabric, threads, and stitches meet our high standards before we move into production.
Production
Once approved, the designs are embroidered directly onto the finished garments. Artisans dedicate hours to each piece, placing every stitch with care, precision and attention to detail.
The result is a garment that blends tradition with modern design, a wearable work of art that carries history, craft, and care in every thread.
NGO Impacto
We work in collaboration with NGOimpacto and Juxta, two Chiapas-based initiatives that promote economic and creative processes alongside women from indigenous communities.
NGOimpacto is a civil organization that supports women artisans through collaborative and ethical methodologies, focusing on valuing textile knowledge, fostering economic autonomy, and strengthening communities.
Juxta is the social enterprise led by NGOimpacto. Through co-design, it develops fair production and commercial processes that preserve living cultural heritage and collective ownership. At Juxta, all women are co-owners of the project, actively participating in decision-making and the distribution of benefits.
Groups of artisans involved:
Grupo Nichimetik Maya (Maya Artisan Group), Aguacatenango, Chiapas
Grupo Flor de Vida (Flower of Life Group), Huixtán, Chiapas
Mujeres Tejiendo Saberes (Women Weaving Knowledge), Zinacantán, Chiapas
