DISCOVER THE HERITAGE OF TOMAS SOTA, THE DESIGNER BEHIND TOM GUTIE

Tomás was born in Cusco, the son of a tailor, who passed down the love and secrets of tailoring from a young age. “At twelve, I learned to choose my own style: the shirt, the pants, and the jacket were things I imagined and then made,” Tomás recalls. In his family atelier, he used a coal iron and a foot-pedal machine, with the Liberty 1980 being the first one he learned to sew with. “My father taught me discipline and precision,” Tomás notes, “it’s in the details where my father’s essence lives, in the demanding process of making each garment.”
