Karla Paola Amaya Chairez

Karla Paola Amaya Chairez is a passionate fashion designer and logistics engineer from Mexico, dedicated to combating the hyper-consumerism of fast fashion that plagues our society today. With a keen awareness of the lack of information surrounding sustainable fashion brands, Karla is on a mission to revolutionize the industry by creating garments designed for easy "upcycling" to extend their lifecycle and promote a circular economy.

Driven by a deep love for nature, Karla sees her dual roles as a designer and engineer as a platform to advocate for environmental conservation. By leveraging her expertise in fashion, she aims to reduce global garment overproduction, thereby minimizing water and soil pollution while improving the social conditions of garment production. Through her innovative approach, Karla seeks to shift perspectives and inspire a more sustainable approach to fashion consumption, ultimately leading to greater satisfaction for both consumers and the planet.
