We collaborate directly with artisans from San Miguel de Pallaques in Cajamarca, Perú. Our founder had the rare opportunity to volunteer in their community for 2 years. This extensive and immersive period was, unknowingly, the inspiration for SIQUICHA.
As an ode to the women who sparked our curiosity for craft, connected us to the loom, and met us with a willingness to weave the worlds of textiles to fashion, we promise to honor them. On each label, you will find the name of its weaver. Artisan profiles are linked below.
Each garment holds the story of a woman. We thank you for being the vessel through which their stories can be shared with the world.
