+ByPeruvian fashion brandCornelio BordabyRenata Garca-Menacho.
Cornelio Borda's visionary designs are realized through collaboration between Peru and Italy, with production based in Peru. The brand has a strong commitment to sustainability by repurposing waste materials and adhering to non-fast fashion principles.
The Alpaca Carpet line intentionally avoids animal fur, using Alpaca wool and, in some models, Pima Cotton yarn from surplus clothing production in Peru. Each unique carpet is meticulously handcrafted and hand-brushed for a soft texture, ideal for shoes and bags. The embroidery technique began with artisans from Italy's Marche Region and has since evolved through partnerships with skilled female artisans in Peru, each dedicating a day to embroider two pairs of handmade Alpaca shoes. The collection, which includes Alpaca bags, promotes sustainable practices in the fashion industry.
