About Us

Three generations of women who made things by hand.

One love of making beautiful things.

Before The Brooklyn Botanica was a fashion brand, it was a family story.

My great-grandmother owned a botánica in Colombia—a place where people gathered for herbs, remedies, and traditions passed from one generation to the next.

In the 1970s, my mother immigrated to New York and found work sewing garments in the Garment District, becoming part of the city's remarkable tradition of fashion manufacturing.

Today, I design kaftans in Brooklyn and produce them in New York, continuing the work of the women who came before me.

Every garment is a tribute to craftsmanship, family, and the enduring belief that beautiful things should be made with care.
