AGUA BY AGUA BENDITA
Friends Catalina Alvarez and Mariana Hinestroza founded Agua by Agua Bendita in 2003 while they were studying fashion design in Medellin, Colombia. Today, the label creates ready-to-wear and swimwear pieces that express the vibrant culture of South America through traditional design and craftsmanship, employing a team of local female artisans who hand embroider garments using techniques passed down through generations. Expect feminine silhouettes in bold prints paying homage to the country’s natural landscapes.
