This collection brings together a line of vests completely hand-woven by expert artisans from Valle Hermoso (V Region), using natural yarns (100% organic wool) applied in different combinations from the most basic to the most complex. There are also other fabrics with figurative Jacquard application, a technique that was widely used in the fabrics of the 70s where animal shapes predominate. The animals that best represent this collection y  that were characteristic are three: fox, owl and rabbit.  They are animals that have the same peculiarity of always being in a state of vigil or alert and on the other hand they are introspective  something that is given more to experience in the winter. On the other hand, a "distinction" was applied in the collection, which is a fox, extracted from one of the illustrations by Catalina Bustos (www.catalinabu.com), which was embroidered on flat fabric for coats and capes_cc781905-5cde-3194- bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ generating a playful and textile collection.
