Armantia, a story with origins that inspire

In such a fast-paced world, where everything seems to be disposable, Armantia decides to pause and invites us to take a breather to contemplate the beauty that is around us and return to our roots.

Armantia is a brand originally from Boyacá, Colombia and was born in 2017 with the firm intention of breaking with fashion paradigms and incorporating a more sustainable and authentic vision in this industry regarding garments that are made in Latin America.

Their path has not been easy, but they have enjoyed each of the steps with which they have managed to fill their beautiful Latin American region and all the people who are part of the Armantia team with well-paid work, joy and enthusiasm.

This brand presents an innovative concept that has been recognized by leading trend forecasting companies worldwide, and they catalog it as one of the strongest trends forecast for the coming years, as each of Armantia's women's swimwear is made with handcrafted pieces, ecological fabrics and natural fibers.

Fusion of design with craftsmanship

Armantia has a lot to offer to the beachwear fashion industry, as its style is characterized by incorporating handcrafted elements into its modern swimwear models. Without a doubt, this is the combination that we had been waiting for a long time!

Their garments achieve a perfect balance between international fashion trends (such as tones, textures, shapes, and more) and the artisanal organic materials typical of their Colombian culture, thus creating a new meaning of luxury and modernity.

Natural fibers never seen before

Every time you put on your handcrafted Armantia swimsuits, you can be sure that you are supporting slow fashion, ethical fashion, and at the same time you are boosting the economy of the beautiful region of Boyacá, Colombia.

To create this innovative resortwear fashion, Armantia carried out various investigations with Colombian artisans to discover which natural fibers were indicated to be resistant to water and to be used in textile creation.

Materials such as banana fiber, tagua and totumo were rescued by them to transform them into the raw material of their renowned ecological fabrics.

Armantia presents an innovative and environmentally friendly proposal, which has managed to attract the attention of various media and shows, which have helped to publicize a project born in the heart of Colombia.

Their effort and modern style have taken them to events such as Colombiamoda, Swim Week Procolombia, Cabana Show, Destination by Coterie Show, Latin American Fashion Summit, Bogotá Fashion Week, among others.
