Colmillo de Morsa
By Rich Jones
Colmillo de Morsa, which translates as “walrus fang,” is a sustainably conscious fashion label from Barcelona founded by designer Elisabet Vallecillo together with marketing professional Javier Blanco.
All pieces are made by hand using toxic-free materials in their workshop in Sant Pere. The style is feminine and casual, and the garments use light fabrics like cotton, silk, rayon and Tencel, making them perfect for the warmer summer months. Having showcased their creations at Parisian fashion fair Who’s Next, Madrid’s Cibeles Fashion Week, and Barcelona’s 080 Fashion Week, Colmillo de Morsa started to gain an international following.
Their Sant Pere studio-cum-showroom also stocks garments and accessories from up-and-coming local designers who share their philosophy of sustainable fashion.
