CELESTINO's
Sustainable Fashion

The fashion industry is the second most polluting industry in the world. CELESTINO offers full transparency regarding the production of every garment created. That transparency is fueled by determination to become the most sustainable and ethical couture atelier in the United States. Sergio Guadarrama and Kade Johnson have created the world of CELESTINO using exclusively upcycled and deadstock fabrics. To keep the carbon footprint of CELESTINO as minimal as possible, as well as upkeep the couture one-of-a-kind nature of every garment, they hold zero inventory. Each garment created by the company is made to order and handcrafted, using haute couture techniques to be one-of-a-kind for the client who has purchased it. CELESTINO also provides a unique experience for the customer by offering the ability to construct a fabulous design that incorporates a client’s existing garment or textile from their heritage that is meaningful to them. 

REVENDER by CELESTINO offers the client the opportunity to return their used CELESTINO garments in exchange for store credit. We will be reselling your gently used prêt-à-porter and made-to-measure pieces as a means of taking responsibility for the products we put out into the world.

When the client purchases a CELESTINO garment they are guaranteed tailored perfection specifically to their body and assurance of a sustainable purchase.

The Power of Femininity
Fall/Winter 2019

Inspired by the Japanese warrior women known as Onna-Bugeisha, the fearless fighters of the Samurai. Protecting their families, lands, and fighting for their beliefs, these warriors were a true display of the power of women; a quality that CELESTINO continuously strives to showcase and uphold.
