THE DESIGNER
Ethical Fashion designer Grace Haum was born in Peru and is currently living in the Netherlands where she designs her collection of unique and sustainably made alpaca wool knitwear. Her mission is to create iconic pieces that combine her European design influences with the classic construction techniques of Peru. Her consciousness and respect for sustainable fashion and human rights is apparent throughout her process, by collaborating with Peruvian artisans and sourcing sustainable, fair-trade materials.
ABOUT THE BRAND
Each Graciela Huam piece is handmade in Peru by a local independent Peruvian artisan to the highest quality. Her collections are made for the conscious and fashionably fearless generation; combining elements of social awareness and sustainability though the construction and materials whilst undoubtably being designed with an individualistic and expressive freedom for people who want to stand out from the crowed.
