Under moonlit skies and bright horizons, Desert Moon was born: a small-batch collection of hooded alpaca-blend ponchos artisan-woven in Ecuador. Unisex, one size, soft warmth without bulk, made for markets, festivals, travel, and everyday magic.
The story behind Desert Moon
We designed Desert Moon for real life—layers that move, breathe, and tell a story. Each poncho is artisan-woven in Ecuador using an alpaca-blend that feels cloud-soft, resists itch, and delivers lightweight warmth. The motifs—sunstone medallions, four-directions geometry, soaring eagles, mesa zigzags, maze-like grecas—nod to Andean inspiration while staying modern and wearable. Every piece is unisex and one size, with a lined hood and wood-button neckline for practical coziness from sunrise markets to starry concerts.

Why alpaca-blend wins (comfort you can feel)
-
Soft + breathable: Alpaca fibers are naturally smooth, so they feel gentle on skin and breathe better than many heavy wools.
-
Warmth without bulk: Perfect for throw-on style—over tees, knits, dresses, or athleisure.
-
Travel-friendly: Folds into a tote, doubles as a wrap on chilly flights, bounces back beautifully.
-
Unisex, one-size: how the fit works
The relaxed cut drapes fluidly across sizes and body types while leaving your arms free. Wear it open and easy, or add a belt to define the waist. The hood brings just-right coverage on breezy evenings and beach walks.
Styling formula:
-
Weekend market: Poncho + denim + ankle boots.
-
Festival night: Belted poncho + stacked bracelets + platform boots.
-
Travel day: Poncho + joggers + sneakers—so cozy on planes.

Care that keeps it beautiful
Good news: maintenance is simple. Hand wash or cold gentle cycle, then lay flat to dry. Avoid high heat and harsh detergents. Store folded (not hung) to protect the drape and shoulders. With simple care, your poncho will stay soft and camera-ready season after season.
Ethically made, small batch
We partner directly with artisan families in Ecuador and pay fairly for their craft. Because these are small-batch pieces, each poncho may have slight variations in color depth or motif placement—your Desert Moon is truly one of a kind.
