Uruguayan designer among the 25 most influential women in the world

Gabriela Hearst, creative director of the leading French fashion house Chloé and founder of its brand, is positioning herself more and more strongly in international fashion following her sustainable ideals, with a clear focus on environmental care, cultural revaluation and femininity.

The designer was recently presented at the New York Fashion Week in which she included other Uruguayans, with music by Juan Campodónico, a live performance by Luciano Supervielle and, as usual in her brand, pieces made by Manos del Uruguay.

Her garments have been worn by many artists and referents from different fields, such as Greta Thynberg, world-renowned climate activist, who wore on the cover of Vouge garments that the designer created for Manos del Uruguay.

It was also the case of Jill Biden, wife of the American president, who wore Hearst garments to meet Queen Elizabeth in the context of a world summit.
