BANZO IS A SUSTAINABLE FASHION BRAND THAT BREATHES NEW LIFE INTO PRE-EXISTING GARMENTS THROUGH A THOUGHTFUL TRANSFORMATION PROCESS.
FOUNDED BY CAMILA BANZO IN 2021, BORN FROM A PROFOUND NEED TO CHANNEL EMOTION INTO SOMETHING BOTH TANGIBLE AND BEAUTIFUL, WHILE EXPLORING THE INTIMATE CONNECTION BETWEEN MEMORIES AND CLOTHING. INSPIRED BY THE RICH AND DYNAMIC WORLD OF HER HOMETOWN, MEXICO CITY, BANZO BEGAN BY DECONSTRUCTING AND UPCYCLING PIECES FROM HER VINTAGE STORE, LA VINTAJE. EACH GARMENT IS REIMAGINED, EMBRACING AN ARTISANAL HANDMADE APPROACH THAT ENSURES EVERY PIECE IS A SINGULAR CREATION. EACH PIECE IS SOURCED, DECONSTRUCTED AND TAILORED IN HER STUDIO IN MEXICO CITY.
BLEEDING CRAFTMANSHIP WITH A DEEP CARE FOR HISTORY, MEMORY, AND A KINDER FUTURE FOR FASHION. BY REPURPOSING CLOTHES, BANZO CREATES VERSATILE, GENDER AND AGE NEUTRAL DESIGNS THAT REFLECT THE PERSONAL AND EMOTIONAL JOURNEY OF ITS CREATOR. THE BRAND IS COMMITTED TO FOSTER SUSTAINABLE GROWTH IN THE FASHION WORLD, IN WHICH STANDARD MASS PRODUCTION IS FAR FROM SUSTAINABLE.
