Details

Ethically made

We follow the World Fair Trade Organisation's guidelines to ensure our practices are fair and improve the lives of those who work with us.

The strip with the Andean motifs has been handmade by women in a rural community in the Peruvian Andes. We pay them a fair wage and help the ones that want to set up their own local businesses. We also dedicate part of the profits to undertake development projects chosen by the women in the communities.

The dress was tailored in a small family-run factory in Lima. We only work with small factories that respect workers' rights and treat them with the love and respect they deserve.
 

The handmade motifs

Each motif tells a story. The motif that looks like an X and an O is called tankachuro (or churo for short), it's also known as the design of the mamas (moms) because it's one of the first that they teach their children. The circular shapes represent the eyes of the lama.
