MEET CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Chiara Macchiavello
A lifetime of profound connections with artisans from diverse regions and cultural expressions of Peru has shaped Chiara Macchiavello’s journey. Thirteen years ago, she founded ESCVDO, driven by her identity as an artist and designer and a desire to share her vision of Conscious Creation rooted in Peru's traditions and textile heritage. As Creative Director, her purpose is to meticulously oversee the transformative process of each garment, from the very fibers and fabrics to the final creation.
Chiara created ESCVDO as a sustainable project, at a time when sustainability was not on the industry’s agenda. At the moment ESCVDO's main challenge is to continue building and improving a completely circular business model through every step of our process, while expanding and establishing a wider network of collaborators all over the country.
Witnessing the consequences that social and economic disparity, as well as pollution can bring over nature and local communities, it's been Chiara’s vision from the beginning that ESCVDO becomes a vehicle for creation, evolution, and positive impact.
