EVERY THREAD HAS A STORY. STEP
INSIDE THE WORLD OF LATEEN.
DANIELA RESTREPO & JULIETA RUIZ
A MOTHER-DAUGHTER LEGACY.
TWO GENERATIONS. ONE PASSION: CREATING BEAUTY THAT EMPOWERS.
OUR STORY BEGAN WITH A HEARTFELT CONVERSATION BETWEEN A MOTHER AND DAUGHTER ABOUT TRUE BEAUTY, AND HOW POWERFUL IT IS WHEN WOMEN LIFT EACH OTHER UP.
WITH DANIELA’S DESIGN BACKGROUND AND JULIETA’S BUSINESS VISION, WE JOINED FORCES TO BUILD SOMETHING MORE THAN JUST A FASHION BRAND.
INSPIRED BY COLOMBIA’S RICH CULTURE AND THE INCREDIBLE ARTISTRY OF ITS WOMEN, WE CREATED LATEEN A BRIDGE BETWEEN ANCESTRAL HAND EMBROIDERY AND CONTEMPORARY DESIGN THAT CELEBRATES FEMININITY IN ALL ITS FORMS.
“WE WANT EVERY WOMAN TO FEEL UNIQUE, EMPOWERED, AND CONNECTED TO A STORY OF HOPE AND SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION.”
— DANIELA & JULIETA CO-FOUNDERS OF LATEEN
