VAGAR

The collection "Vagar" suggests a reflection on the pace of modern life, reevaluating the concept of time in fashion.

"Vagar" means "slowness" and evokes the concept of enjoyment: going slowly, wandering, dedicating oneself, appreciating, enjoying.

Using sustainable and time-consuming techniques, we emphasize the impact of "vagar" on the pieces: time was needed to grow salt crystals in a supersaturated solution, introducing a natural shine to the garments, avoiding plastics and synthetic materials; hand weaving and the use of knitwear minimize waste and preserve the artisanal essence that, by nature, is unhurried; the forms, colors and materials inspired by the sea hark back to the creative process, where nothing is immediate.

"Vagar" stands out for its creativity, sustainability, and innovation, combining careful design, in-depth research, and a meticulous selection of materials and silhouettes.
