Preserving Heritage with BIELO
Josep Puig Romeu, the founder of BIELO, is dedicated to continuing his family’s manufacturing heritage with his own label.
Located in La LLacuna, a small town a one-hour drive from Barcelona, the Puig Romeu family atelier has been producing knitwear since the eighties; with an unexpected encounter with Japanese craftsmanship that led them to become a one-of-a-kind manufacturer by combining western and eastern techniques.
BIELO blends Josep’s refreshing look on fashion with his family’s knowledge of high quality fabrics and manufacturing, resulting in pieces marked by distinctive, playful colour combinations and pattern experimentations with luxurious knits.
