Founded in Italy by Martina Boero during the 2020 lockdown, Cavia is an eco-conscious fashion brand built on a philosophy of experimentation and zero-waste. The name, which translates to "guinea pig," reflects its core mission: to treat every garment as a unique experiment by transforming overlooked materials into new creations. The brand exclusively uses upcycled textiles, vintage garments, and deadstock yarns, ensuring no two pieces are exactly alike. This commitment to sustainability is matched by a dedication to Italian craftsmanship, with a network of local artisans producing each item by hand using techniques like patchwork, crochet, and embroidery.
