The workshop is my temple, my sacred place, a seedbed of ideas.

People come here to create, to experiment, to have a good time, but above all to create conscious garments that transcend.

We use eco-friendly fabrics, such as tencel, cupro and GOTS-certified organic Peruvian cotton. We also rescue used Indian saris, where we can spend hours admiring their patterns and colors while dreaming about how they would look dancing in the wind (real, not fake).

In 2017 we entered #zerowaste mode, first intuitively and then getting to know and learning from teachers that I was lucky enough to meet: Nastasia from Valencia and Natascha von Hirschhausen from Berlin.

Zero Waste pattern making means that nothing is wasted from the fabric, everything is used and no scraps are generated. This is a technique that challenges the traditional way of making clothes, where approximately 15% of the fabric ends up as waste.

By applying this technique in the workshop we have been able to mitigate our footprint on this Earth and be part of and contribute to the culture of sustainability.

The artists responsible for making our conscious garments are Rosi, Marisol, América and Paulina who live in Santiago.

They are talented and enterprising women, heads of households who, with dedication and commitment, make garments, highlighting what is handmade and made in Chile.

 

When the season warrants it, we use warmer textiles that have been woven in the country, so that we can generate a positive impact on the local industry.
