Bando is a slow fashion label creating contemporary garments from antique and reclaimed textiles. Each piece is handcrafted in limited quantities or as a one-of-one, preserving the beauty and craftsmanship of fabrics with a history.
We carefully source antique textiles from Argentina and Europe, dating from the 18th to the 20th century. Crochet, lace, embroidery and household linens—once made entirely by hand by women across generations—are washed, repaired when needed, and thoughtfully reconstructed into contemporary silhouettes. Rather than erasing the marks of time, we preserve the character, delicacy and craftsmanship of each textile, ensuring that no two garments are ever exactly alike.
By working exclusively with existing materials, we extend the life of extraordinary textiles that might otherwise be forgotten. Our collections are rooted in craftsmanship, longevity and the belief that clothing should carry meaning beyond seasons.
