My name is Constanza Fuentes I am originally from Argentina, I am an Architect and I have been living and working in New York for 5 years now.
Making woman accessories with yarn and fabric has always been an activity that I enjoyed a lot. This hobby had become for time to time a small business (I used to sell some of my work in Argentina and Texas) and I am focused to launch my own brand in a more serious way this summer.
I design and hand make woman accessories; mostly necklaces and handbags, but I am now also incorporating some cloths like vests to my creations. The materials that I utilize for the necklaces are yarn and cotton and the bags and the vests are made of fabrics, suede or yarn. I always try to incorporate and mix some architectural concepts into my designs; I like to play with volume, shapes, movement, colors and textures. These concepts are always present when I knit the necklaces or chose the fabrics I will use for the vests.
