Juana Diaz
Santiago designer, Juana Diaz is both a fashion designer and a textile artist, working with textile scraps to generate exclusive hand crafted products through fair labor with female home workers. Developing a technique that cobbles varying scraps of fabric together, with her signature contrasting top stitching bridging the textural and color diversity between fabrics, she produces simple kimono style tops and wrap dresses, which belay the complex nature of the fabric piecing and stitch overlays.
