Art & Fashion From Peru
Spotlights on the land of the Incas, where some of the most popular trends in terms of style are getting started. From alpaca to cotton, Peru has a long and precious textile tradition and a fin production of fabrics such as Pima cotton and Alpaca wool.
Today the style has adapted to modern tastes, and techniques have been refined, but the quality of raw materials is still very high. In particular, as we said, Pima cotton and Alpaca wool.
Pima cotton, one of the most valuable cottons in the world, grows in a desert in the north of Peru where a special microclimate makes the cotton soft, shiny and smooth.
The Alpaca wool is one of the most valuable in the world for its lightness and its thermal efficiency and Peru is one of the largest producers of this type of wool. The Alpaca wool has been used by well-known stylists for their collections as well.
On line, we found a very interesting link to purchase original and handmade alpaca ponchos directly from the Internet with credit card payment. This ethnic clothing online shop, La Mamita, among its various alpaca clothing, sells only hand-crafted ponchos in alpaca wool – as the original ones from the Andes. A poncho is a typical South American cloth. Beautiful hand-craft clothes in alpaca wool. Only the best alpaca wool, known for his particularly softness, for beautiful clothes in Peruvian style. Discover La Mamita clothing, ponchos for men, women and children … even at wholesale!
