ABOUT CHANTAL

Designer / Model

Indonesian / Dutch / Ukrainian / Yaqui Indian

I was raised in the San Francisco Bay Area and moved to Santa Fe, NM in the late 90’s.

Santa Fe has inspired me to become the person I am. I fell in love with the deep silence, the vast turquoise skies, billowy clouds, and a slower paced lifestyle.

Living in the high desert, we learn to wear layers upon layers. The weather is moody and changes throughout the day.

I’ve taken my love for textures, color mixing, and animal furs (wool, mohair, angora, alpaca, cashmere) to create one-of-a-kind textiles.

All my yarns are unused vintage and stash yarns that are made into exquisite high end designs.

This is for the woman who enjoys the rhythms of nature, trusts her instincts and loves to express herself through fashion.

Won’t you join me in becoming part of the slow fashion movement.
