Marisol
Arteaga

The daughter of a lauded poet, Marisol Arteaga was raised to look hard at the world and find the thread worth pulling. Her work reflects that upbringing — the inspirations gathered in a lifelong search for beauty that can't be manufactured, only found.

From her studio in Brooklyn, she incorporates elements from art, architecture, textiles, and apparel craftsmanship into a singular modern vision. With over fifteen years of concept, design, and trend forecasting experience across Fortune 500 retail systems, high-growth startups, and her own founder-led brand, her work embodies luxury, ease, and a deeply rooted romance with craft.

Arteaga's designs are the result of cross-cultural collaborations between craftsmen and weavers from different parts of the world — each piece rooted in authenticity, heritage, and the kind of workmanship that takes generations to perfect. Her collections highlight the exquisite and are created for longevity: each piece is meant to be worn for years to come.

Arteaga combines the finest fabrications and intricate workmanship with ethical and sustainable design practices. Her sourcing relationships span India, Mexico, Italy, France, and Japan — built directly with artisans and mills, never through intermediaries.

Her unique creations are rooted in sustainable design practices that aim to empower traditional weaving communities and help preserve indigenous design practices from different parts of the world. B Corp values from inception: fair trade, artisan empowerment, and radical supply chain transparency.

She has held long-term creative director and head designer roles at Christopher Blue, Michael Stars, Young Fabulous & Broke, and Alo Yoga — and has directed projects for Nanette Lepore, Kenneth Cole, Hollister, and Abercrombie & Fitch. She began her career at Gap Inc. with Old Navy and Target's Mossimo label.
