smart sweater

Soft, warm and stylish, this sweater has it all. Wilber Calapuja's blue turtleneck pullover evokes the beauty of winter skies in the Andes. Knit of a baby alpaca blend, it looks smart with jeans, slacks or a dressy skirt while keeping you comfortably warm.

The Andean region presents its dapper side in this smart creation by Fernando Cano from Peru. Made with 100% alpaca yarns, which allows for a soft sensation, this pullover features an elegant geometric pattern in teal, blue and grey hues. In addition, a ribbed crew neck, bottom hem and cuffs allow for a fitted look.

The magnificent Inca wall that once protected an entire empire is now part of a dapper creation by Briseida Huete from Peru. The artisan crafts this pullover from 100% alpaca yarns, allowing a soft sensation that completes the crew neck and long sleeves with comfort. The pattern imitates a classic wall, combining alabaster, beige, blue, red and green hues for a smart look.

This artsy cardigan is the perfect statement piece. Patricia Lopez knits it from cotton with an abstract jacquard pattern in blue, white and grey. Try it out with jeans or paired with a smart skirt.

The Andean artisan worked for years as an industrial engineer before throwing in the towel to follow her passion for traditional Peruvian textiles and fashion. She runs a workshop in the capital city of Lima where she creates apparel and accessories that mix traditional and contemporary techniques and designs.
