Anciela is a platform that celebrates Colombian culture and experimental tailoring. Founded by London-based fashion designer Jennifer Droguett in 2019, the brand believes in creating light-hearted clothing that are both functional and fun. Each garment becomes a part of a story that promotes a fresh South American narrative, showing Colombia’s rich history in a different light. At the core of the brand is a mindful approach to design, where planet comes first.

Anciela will be bringing their experimental approach to design to the Fashion District Festival, teaching workshop attendees how to use fabric scraps and turn them into unique embroidered embellishments that tell a story.
