Its architectural, oversized construction features voluminous sleeves, relaxed shoulders, and a flowing structure that naturally drapes around the body, creating a sophisticated and commanding presence.
The garment reveals its material richness with every movement. Beneath the surface of the deep indigo denim, layers of embroidered cotton eyelet and bouclé tweed emerge, creating a visual and tactile contrast that brings depth, lightness, and character. These concealed layers appear and disappear as the garment moves, transforming it into a dynamic and evolving experience.
Inspired by serene strength, Killa Kawsay combines the structural power of denim with the delicacy of artisanal textiles, creating a silhouette that exists between coat, dress, and ceremonial cape.
The rich indigo tone enhances the beauty of its materials while emphasizing the garment’s sculptural volume. Interior finishes reveal a carefully curated textile universe, meticulously crafted down to every detail.
A collectible piece designed to transcend seasons, where design, craftsmanship, and cultural storytelling converge in a contemporary expression of conscious luxury.

Story of piece
Killa Kawsay, meaning “Moon Life,” was conceived from the idea of a garment that transforms through movement.
From a distance, it appears as a serene monochromatic silhouette. Yet as it unfolds, hidden layers of embroidered eyelet and bouclé tweed emerge, enriching its visual narrative. Like the moon, whose appearance shifts with the light, this piece reveals new dimensions as it moves with the body.
Its design embodies the coexistence of strength and delicacy, structure and fluidity, tradition and modernity.
Killa Kawsay is a celebration of textiles that preserve memory, of techniques that endure through time, and of a beauty that reveals itself gradually.
