True to its mission, Kené Kaya remains dedicated to co-creating ethically made products in collaboration with indigenous artisans and artists in Peru, combining modern styles with traditional artwork passed down generations. Focusing on producing in small quantities in exclusive limited release capsule collections, Kené Kaya aims to minimize environmental impact while prioritizing craftsmanship and premium materials. “I am always trying to experiment with different mediums that integrate indigenous artwork,” explains Alessandra, who presented swimwear for the first time at Miami Swim Week The Shows. The Amazonía collection offered an elegant and cohesive array of swimwear made of colorful fabric prints of geometric tribal patterns, a common feature of Shipibo-Conibo art, alongside one-of-a-kind embroidered and hand-painted cover-ups by globally renown Peruvian artists Olinda and Sadith Silvano. The Amazonia collection will soon be available for purchase online and for wholesale. This expansion aims to reach a broader audience, offering fashion enthusiasts around the world the opportunity to own a piece of Peruvian artistry. Through its unique designs, Kené Kaya invites consumers to embrace slow fashion and support a movement that values cultural heritage and environmental responsibility. With every purchase, customers become part of a larger narrative that champions the preservation and celebration of indigenous art.
