Sustainability at the Core
Valerie Garmino set out to build a fashion legacy rooted in purpose — one that seeks to create beauty while making a meaningful impact on the world. At a time when sustainability was not widely recognized and few guidelines existed, Valerie forged her own path, becoming a pioneer in the field.
Her pursuit led her across continents in search of environmentally conscious materials such as baby alpaca, pima cotton, and toquilla straw, while also seeking the most skilled artisans in the world. For each design, she carefully selects the right team to bring craftsmanship to life. By working with family-owned businesses and artisans in Italy, France, Peru, and Ecuador, she ensures a global approach that preserves cultural heritage and honors traditional skills. Each piece is a testament to artistry, cultural preservation, and a commitment to excellence without compromise.
With her Haute Couture line, Valerie brings this philosophy to its most elevated expression.
Each piece is an intimate work of art — sewn with care, shaped by mastery, and guided by reverence for both the process and the planet. In her world, luxury is defined by intention, where refinement and responsibility coexist in every thread.
