Nuestra posición: “The Opposite Thing”. Diseñado en Londres — Hecho en España — Sourcing y producción en la UE.

Miista rompe con las prácticas excluyentes de la industria de la moda para mostrar cómo vivimos realmente hoy. Durante los últimos diez años, hemos construido con orgullo una marca que, a través del oficio, la comunidad, los riesgos asumidos y una a veces extraña voluntad de reírnos de nosotros mismos, ha hecho un compromiso elegante con lo alternativo. Una dedicación a “lo contrario”.

¿Qué significa esto? Que estamos dispuestos a sacrificar margen y a subvertir tendencias problemáticas de la moda para crear un producto con personalidad además de valor estético. Un producto que entiende que las mujeres ya no compran buscando palabras como “bonito”. Si fuéramos tu amigo, Miista sería ese compañero raro del colegio que creció con actitud y seguridad. Sabes cuándo es Miista.
