      SYLVIA CALVO BCN was born from the illusion of giving a new life to a story. A story of coffee fields, of work, effort and illusions of many workers, of sea voyages, of unloading in ports... a story that is lived in her designs. In the collections one breathes a transformation, with a rigorous care, washing, giving a new form and a new life to a material that already fulfilled its first life and use. Designs where the coffee sacks will be part of a new story and other lives. Sylvia Calvo BCN's ecological garments are all about exclusive design and recycling. Show less
