Migalle

Migalle was founded on the belief that beauty is everywhere. The patina of the urban environment, the geometry of nature, the ephemera of found images, and the minutiae of everyday life reveal textures and forms, which Migalle transforms into original compositions and patterns in silk. Migalle’s mission is to reveal beauty in unlikely places, transform it into wearable forms of decoration, comfort and self-expression, and return the value this generates to the community by donating $5 from every purchase to the Canadian Women’s Foundation.
