We’re often asked about the pricing of our traditional Huipil dresses and why other designers sell the same quality for 3-5x the price.
We’re able to achieve this pricing because I work directly with the weaving artisans, many for over a decade now, and because we don’t wholesale these items - no middlemen means no 3x cost markups and our artisans can receive more of the margin directly while at the same time offering our customers a fair price.
I started this business because I feel strongly that we make our items accessible enough that responsibly made fashion isn’t reserved for luxury customers. And 10yrs later, that same vision feels more important than ever.

For Spring 2021, we collaborated on a collection with Pink Chicken NY!
Allegra connected with Stacey, the founder of Pink Chicken over their mutual admiration for each others brands, and their love for traditional Mexican embroidery. Every garment is fully made by hand by traditional Oaxacan embroidery artisans. It is a beautiful combination of Pink Chicken silhouettes, colors and stripes with traditional, purposeful craftsmanship resulting in beautiful keepsake garments. Included are a girls dress, a 2-piece set for baby and a dress for Mom in 3 colors - white and blue stripe, white and beige stripe and sea pink.

It was lovely to be able to see customers in person after so long!
Our Mommy & Me blouses and dresses were the hit of the weekend! Huge thanks to Jill for hosting us and our Tivoli friends for a great weekend!
Over the years we've popped up in some of our favorite cities all over the country. We would love to continue to do so as long as it's safe and hope to see many of you soon. Here are some favorite images from events in Charlotte NC, Greenville SC, NYC and Fairfield CT!
We love meeting you, our customers who have become friends, and getting your invaluable feedback on fit and styling.
