Who is Alma

Hello everyone,

I'm Celeste, the creator of Alma, and I want to share a bit of my story with you. I am Italian, and after many years living abroad, I now live in Santiago, Chile. For over 10 years, I lived in Australia, where I worked as a barista and manager in cafes and restaurants. It was a very important stage in my life, full of learning and growth.

Over time, I began to feel a deep need to create something of my own, something that would make me happy every day, that would allow me to express my creativity and experiment with new ideas.

Everything changed during a magical trip to the Elqui Valley. There, I met a craftswoman who was also the owner of the hostel where I was staying. She had a small workshop and shop where she created handmade dresses, bags, and garments. I fell in love with that world. At that moment, I understood that this was what I wanted to do: create unique, high-quality pieces that conveyed a deep meaning.

This is how Alma was born: from the desire to express essence, identity, and a love for handmade. Because every creation carries the soul of its creator.

With love, Celeste
