papel de punto
NYFW SS’25
PAPEL DE PUNTO is a Colombian knitwear concept brand founded by Laura Acevedo that seamlessly blends fashion with her unique artistic vision.
Embracing the "neat but fun" concept, PAPEL offers distinctive garments for everyday wear. Each piece is crafted with industrial-grade, high-quality knits, finished with handmade touches, making every garment a limited edition suitable for both men and women. Committed to social and environmental responsibility, the brand uses partially recycled cotton and various fiber blends. Entirely made in Colombia, each piece reflects their dedication to sustainability and quality.
In 2015, Laura won the "Se Busca Diseñador Fucsia" competition, leading to her first runway show at Colombiamoda. Her work has been showcased at prestigious events such as the Bienal Iberoamericana de Diseño in Madrid, Bogotá Fashion Week, New York Fashion Week, Paris Fashion Week, and Salone del Mobile in Milan. She has also featured in pop-up stores in CDMX, Rome, and Savannah, Georgia, and collaborated with brands like Falabella and Crepes & Waffles. Laura now has a flagship store in the heart of Quinta Camacho in Bogotá, where she continually pushes the boundaries of knitwear design.
BOGOTÁ
The BOGOTÁ collection is inspired by the city’s unique contrasts and hidden beauty. As the capital of Colombia, where the designer is from and currently based, BOGOTÁ serves as both a muse and a home. Paying tribute to its "rolos" (locals), the designs reflect the city’s past and present, drawing from its urban textures and vibrant flora. Neutral tones like black, raw, and brown are contrasted with bold pops of orange and aquamarine, while loose, playful silhouettes offer versatile functionality. This collection reimagines classic forms, celebrating BOGOTÁ's cultural identity through a modern, dynamic lens.
