      Gretty Zueger makes casual and feminine designs made of cotton and silk. The unique embroidery and perfect fit make the designs very flattering.

      Alpaca Collections is proud to introduce a new line of product to our customers from Gretty Zueger, that can be a fabulous addition to any summer wardrobe.

      These lightweight garments include tops, ponchos, cardigans and dresses with unique and flattering designs, using high-quality eco friendly materials.

      Besides Peruvian pima cotton, Gretty Zueger uses natural silk, a beautiful and breathable fabric, which is fashionable as well as comfortable and hypoallergenic for everyday wear.

      In addition to her native Peruvian heritage, Gretty Zueger also found inspiration in New Mexico. Her designs were inspired by the diversity of fine artisan goods and a blend of the Anglo, Hispanic, and Indian ethnicities in Santa Fe. Zueger decided to add embellishments to the fabric by piping or incorporating mixed-media into her pieces. The original Gretty Zueger line had more of a midwest feel and was even featured in Cowboys and Indians Magazine, but shifted to more of an everyday wear collection.

      Travel continues to be a source of inspiration, as she incorporates ethnic, romantic symbols, and elements of nature into her pieces. Each piece is drawn by hand, imprinted, and artisan embroidered, one piece at a time.

      In many of Zueger’s collections, garments are dyed, using high-pigmented inks. This rinse process is eco-friendly because it uses less water than traditional dyeing methods. This is just one way Zueger is prioritizing environmental consciousness in the fashion realm.

      We are pleased to be able to showcase this amazing line as part of our collection. Enjoy!
