THE ARTISANS
The embroideries on the VILMA SHIRTS are handmade by a women-led association named "El arte de bordar en El Colca" located in Yanque, Arequipa.
With their work they want to pass on the practice of embroidery. This beautiful figures and spiral shapes have meanings and translations that come from the ancient incas and represent the local flora and fauna of the environment.

The regenerative method restores and nurtures ecosystems by creating an environment that encourages biodiversity and fosters growth. It uses no synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, so it's better for the environment than conventional farming practices.
