About Brand: _NIM

Name comes from: It comes from the fabric that came before denim. It was created it a town called Nimes in France, it was first used as workwear fabric before it became widely popular in the 60s. 

Inspired by: Our brand my personal fashion journal. It may sound pretentious but I just really love to do the pieces that I am craving to wear. 

Why you started: My family has been in the textile industry for a very long time and I saw all the wasted fabrics, trimmings, deadstock materials and wanted to make something from it and that;s how _NIM was born. 90% of all of the resources we used are rather sourced from deadstock warehouses around Perú or by reworking past collections.
