Lara Long Sleeve Top

At the heart of Andean Collective's ethos lies a dedication to ethical practices, starting with the careful selection of fabrics and fibers. As a slow fashion brand, Andean Collective is committed to creating high-quality, low-impact, long-lasting designs that are cherished season after season. Utilising beautifully textured raw materials, we craft effortless, chic clothing for everyday wear.

Our fabrics, sourced sustainably, are of the highest quality. We procure our alpaca wool and organic cotton from the Peruvian Andes, known for their superior softness, warmth, and breathability. Alpaca wool is a renewable and eco-friendly fiber, considered one of the greenest on the planet, and no animals are ever harmed in our production processes.

Andean Collective was born from a dream nurtured in the fertile soils of the Bundjalung Nation in the Byron Bay Shire, inspired by nature and a profound connection to country. We create sustainably sourced, ethically produced luxury pieces that embody freedom, morality, and the passions that drive us.

Driven by a deep love for our environment and a desire to elevate our global community, Andean Collective creates products of the highest quality, using nature's finest materials from sustainable sources. Through integrity and transparency, Andean Collective strives to create a future where fashion supports a thriving planet, promoting sustainable sourcing, ethical production, and minimising carbon emissions.

At Andean Collective, we aspire to lead by example, forging a path for the evolution of the fashion industry. We encourage the alignment of aesthetics and ethics, fostering a more environmentally conscious, sustainable, and holistic industry.

Each of our pieces is meticulously handcrafted by our artisans in Peru, ensuring timeless garments that surpass industrially mass-produced products. We combine traditional global artistry, indigenous influence, and the dedication poured into each garment by our Peruvian artisans, offering timeless, feel-good expressions of self for years to come.

We are proud to work predominantly with strong women, from our valued artisans in South America to our evolving team in Byron Bay.

Andean Collective is committed to giving back to humanity and safeguarding Mother Earth, while supporting the creative endeavours of our team and enhancing the socio-economic status of our artisans, their families, and their communities at large.

Our pieces are a homage to strong women and men—brave, independent, and eager to drive positive change and growth in human consciousness, through our choices, our footprints, our statements, and the fashion we wear.
