SISA was created 8 years ago by a small, multidisciplinary team of women, with the premise of designing garments that can be worn and rediscovered year after year. Avoiding temporary trends, we make pieces that build on each woman’s personal story over time, since we understand that luxury resides in what remains over time; what can be inherited, what allows to be cared for.
Our collections are developed in Chile and Perú, allowing us to maintain close relationships with the people we work with, from suppliers and workshops to photographers and producers. We work directly with local craftsmen to create garments and accessories that are made responsibly, using materials of natural origins that preserve their practical qualities and subtly manifest the passage of time. Everything that surrounds our pieces, including packaging and labels, is made in Chile.
The construction of each garment is dedicated and handcrafted: they are made one at a time. We have thus been able to grow consciously, separated from the conventions of an industry that often remains immutable in the face of overstock and waste generation.
Our prospective sustainability strategy involves quantifying our current actions and defining concrete future actions to minimize negative social and environmental impact, and also aims to maximize our positive impact. For these purposes, SISA is currently in the process of evaluating its social and environmental footprint through the B Impact Assessment protocol.
