Originally from Buenos Aires and now based in Byron Bay, Maria Del Villar is the founder of namesake label Del Villar. Growing up enamoured by fashion and its boundless creativity, Maria went on to formally train in fashion design in Argentina before travelling the world. It was on these adventures that she studied yoga and jewellery design in India, made and sold clothes at markets throughout America, and learned how to handcraft leather accessories in Australia. It's this mélange of references that she brings to Del Villar, a ready-to-wear label heroing natural fabrics and timeless design. The small collections are manufactured by a female-run factory in Indonesia. Del Villar’s seasonless garments are specifically designed to be worn on rotation for years to come.
