Karla Murguia, born in Guadalajara, Mexico, creates ethical, contemporary designs that honor artisans’ textile traditions. Her work champions fair wages and sustainable practices to preserve cultural heritage.

Montsera Collective is all about slowing down and acknowledging beauty in every little detail. With quick access to everything, we have lost that part of connecting with our roots and making conscious purchasing decisions that have a positive social, economic, and environmental impact.

We have been inspired by our travels to seek out garments that can be worn all year round for any occasion, creating versatile statement pieces that embody Mexican design in a contemporary and sophisticated way. Each garment is thoughtfully crafted with intricate details and timeless silhouettes that will make you feel elegant and chic.

What started as an adventure, traveling through different communities in Chiapas and Oaxaca in search of talented artisans, became a beautiful collaboration with different groups of women pursuing a common goal to grow together doing what we are most passionate about.

Now, we are currently working with a group of Master Artisans from 9 communities in Chiapas, Oaxaca, Jalisco and Campeche.
