About ALEPEL
ALEPEL is a contemporary brand that specializes in luxury hand-painted shoes, accessories, and home. It was founded in 2014 by Adriana Epelboim-Levy. The brand is built on its vision in being ‘a canvas for which anything is possible’ where our mission is to connect art and design into one-of-a-kind pieces that are as precious as the process involved. Our production model is made by non-traditional procedures, making each piece unique and special. All designs featured are designed by Adriana. Every piece is crafted by hand in Brazil using high quality materials and techniques with a zero waste process, then, hand-painted by our local artistic team in Miami who despite their different backgrounds, are connected through the language of art. We aim to support and revive our creative community, to celebrate handmade and authentic work. To avoid excess of material, we have a “made to order” business model. Every order is hand-painted per purchase so no mass production of the product is made or stored. Our packaging is made out of 100% recycle card stock (no plastic), and we have designed a shoebox that doubles as our shipping box for all of our orders, avoiding the need for double packaging material, and allowing us to repurpose all of our fulfillment material.
