The Andean Collection is setting its sights on more than tagua and açaí jewelry. After dipping into waist-cinching "inspiration belts" in January, the fair-trade label welcomes fedoras and handwoven infinity scarves into its fold. Inspired by the urban landscapes of Brooklyn and Ecuador's capital city of Quito, the autumnal and jewel-toned "Antisana" range dovetails with the Andean Collection's mission to bring sustainable change to South America's rural communities, particularly in Ecuador, where its wares are cobbled together by hand.

Named after Ecuador’s fourth-highest volcano, Antisana heralds another seismic shift—a new look and logo for the nearly three-year-old company. Expect dressier silhouettes, such as the Honeycomb necklace and Mesa ring, as well as an expanded belt collection with your choice of wrap ties or buckles.

“We looked to emphasize more literally the collaboration between the urban and the rural by incorporating geometric shapes and designs we find during our everyday walks in Brooklyn,” says designer Amanda Judge, who founded the Andean Collection. With more options than before, the line is designed to “complement and elevate a contemporary wardrobe,” she adds, with pieces that make powerful style statements whether worn in tandem or alone.
