THE STORY BEHIND THE STOLE
Rooted in heritage.
Made for your story.
A little piece of where you come from,
for the moment you step into what’s next.
A personal beginning
Meet the Creator of Kapchi
Hi, I’m Bianca Poma.
Kapchi began with a feeling: I wanted to see my heritage represented on graduation day. As a proud Indigenous woman of Quechua/Wari culture, with Peruvian roots in Ayacucho and Ancash, I wanted to carry that part of myself into the moment.
That feeling became a small shop, a sewing machine in a corner of my living room, and a way to help other graduates honor where they come from.
Every order means so much to this little business. Thank you for letting me be a small part of your story, and of such a special day.
Heritage, made personal
