Ana Walsh Fashion Archeology

As we’ve mentioned before and in our How to Go Green series -the one dedicated to Wardrobe- one of the ways to make “eco-savvy fashion choices” is to buy repurposed clothing. Well, if you’re ever shopping in or around Buenos Aires, Ana Walsh’s exquisite taste and faculties in the matters clothes recovery is something to have in mind. This former fashion producer and PR executive that has worked with big brands in the industry launched this year her own line of clothing, focused on clothes recovery and redesign: Ana Walsh Fashion Archeology. “The name is a reference to an archeological work that focuses in the search and redesign of antique pieces through an artisan labor which keeps each products’ original essence”, she explains in her website, where you can also check some pieces of the first collection, called Rebirth. The clothes can be purchased in Pompon -a small shop in 5942 Nicaragua st, Palermo, Buenos Aires- or in her showroom (appointments by phone: 54 11 4833 1063). ::Ana Walsh
