Modeling and Mariachi

We are really excited about our first ever Summer catalog and the addition of a 4th collection to our design house. As a preview to the season please enjoy a small clip from our Oaxaca, Mexico photo shoot.   We hired a local Mariachi band for some of the shots and were delighted when they began to perform as the photographer took pictures of the model.  A little grainy but certainly fun to watch.

¡Viva México!

I love your clothes line - It's beautiful!! But, quite frankly, i'm tired of Mexico, and all that that implies.

I have enjoyed these clothes in the past but oh they are so expensive - it is perhaps due to so much spent on the catalogues and filming them?

Thank you PC for contextualizing the textiles in some of the cultures where either the artisans or the inspiration for the designs come from. It is a pleasure for me to look at your catalogues, whether set in Peru, Mexico, or Turkey. As a South American, I am pleased that an American company is, for once, making a connection between where the materials and the talented artisans come from and what you show in some of your catalogues. If I could add a suggestion, it'd be to incorporate at least one local model from the places where you are shooting.
