  • PLAYA FUEGUITA COLLECTION

    Fueguita began with embroidered shirts inspired by the ocean and everyday life on the coast of Guatemala. Each shirt starts as a carefully selected secondhand garment and is transformed by hand into a one-of-a-kind piece.

    Alongside our signature shirts, the collection includes patchwork kimonos, skirts, shorts, and dresses made from upcycled materials sourced from the pacas.
