We want to share with you our all-time favorites, a select collection of our favorite alpaca garments throughout the years that we would not change for anything, always essential in the closet to highlight any outfit. Let us begin!

The Coronavirus pandemic has affected the whole world. At Alpaca Collections, we source most of our products from Peru, specifically the city of Arequipa on the foothills of the Andes.

The natural colors of alpaca are undyed, hence, and environmental issues associated with the dyeing process are minimized. Alpaca fiber comes in more than 22 natural colors...

For more than one million small alpaca farmers in the central Andes of South America, alpacas are an important pillar for livelihood.
Alpacas are also an extremely important element of cultural identity. According to the Peruvian National Institute of Statistics and Informatics (INEI) census in 2012, a population of 3.7 alpacas supports these Peruvian families.

Today, a world concerned about the environment and its sustainability has the opportunity to know and understand the importance of Alpacas and their fiber.

We want to present the WHY ALPACA concept, which will allow many people to understand the contribution of Alpacas to the environment and its sustainability.

In Part 1, we talked a little about Alpacas in general and shared some 
details on the Huacayo Alpaca. 

"Fashion is a world of color, dynamic, full of different tastes and trends. In this world, there is a color that is in every wardrobe, and never goes out of fashion, and is always elegant. People in the textile industry know there are many types of black clothing, most of them chemically dyed. Natural Black does not need chemicals it is a different black, hard to find and unique."

By definition, Royal Alpaca is the most exclusive of Alpaca fibers, making up less than 1% of the total Alpaca production worldwide. It compares with the world’s finest natural fibers, including cashmere, mohair, and merino.
