Social program for empowerment and employability
Weaving Second Chances
The heart of Estrafalario is our Social Program for Empowerment and Employability, which provides decent work and new opportunities to incarcerated women at the Virgen de Fátima Penitentiary.
Through garment construction and hand embroidery, they receive fair compensation and technical training while bringing our garments to life with their talent and creativity.
More than 158 women have participated in this program, demonstrating that sustainable fashion can also create a positive social impact and open doors to new opportunities.
Designer and Founder
Valery Zevallos
From a young age, our designer Valery Zevallos found fashion to be a form of expression, transforming garments and exploring new possibilities through design.
In 2015, she was selected to participate in the COP21 in Paris, an experience that led her to reflect on the environmental and social impact of the textile industry. In 2016, she relaunched Estrafalario as a Peruvian sustainable fashion brand with a social impact.
Each creation is born from her sketches and drawings, which come to life through the artisanal work of the women in our Social Program for Empowerment and Employability. Thus, each piece intertwines signature design with a story of transformation.
