Huancayo, Peru
Huancayo is a fertile high valley located in the central Andes of Peru. Its main industry is agriculture, but the region is also rich in textile traditions dating back to the Inca Empire. Hand embroidery is one of the most influential textile techniques and it is part of our everyday life.
A great example of this, are our embroidered sweaters and jackets. When made for an event, they are embroidered with large, colorful floral designs. While everyday sweaters are adorned with tiny embroidered flowers and rhinestones.
