About Amigla
Welcome to amigla- where fashion meets purpose. We believe that every piece of clothing should not only make you feel confident and stylish but tell a story. Founded in Chicago 2024, we committed to creating fashion that embodies quality, authenticity, and sustainability, without compromising on style.
Our Story
For as long as I can remember myself, I’ve loved sewing and designing dresses. As a little girl, I would make princess gowns for myself and style my friends and family. I was drawn to timeless, elegant fashion—like the classic looks Audrey Hepburn wore. But my innocent life changed when I went through the trauma of sexual assault at a young age. I didn’t know how to process it, but one thing helped me feel like myself again—clothing. I started wearing pieces that helped me feel fearless, confident, and powerful. Fashion became more than just clothes; it was a way to heal, to regain my strength, and to step into the best version of myself.
As someone who loves classic, high-quality fashion, I struggled to find a brand that truly spoke to me—something elegant, empowering, and still affordable. That’s when I knew I had to create it myself. I wanted to design clothing that makes women feel strong, unstoppable, and beautiful in their own skin. Pieces that aren’t just trendy, but timeless—meant to last a lifetime. More than anything, I wanted my brand to be about more than just fashion. I wanted it to be a source of confidence and belonging for women who need it most. Because to me, clothing isn’t just what we wear—it’s how we show the world who we are.
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower women to embrace their individuality and strength by redefining fashion on their own terms. We are deeply committed to supporting women and children who have experienced sexual and mental abuse, ensuring they receive the care, understanding, and resources they deserve. Inspired by the personal experience of our founder, Santa Reis, we want every woman who has faced similar hardships to feel heard, valued, and supported.
Through our ongoing partnership with Rainn, we provide direct assistance by funding therapy sessions, shelter programs, and essential resources for affected women and children. Every purchase made contributes to this mission, helping women take steps toward healing and reclaiming their power.
We strive to break the stigma that keeps survivors silent, fostering a culture of community, self-acceptance, and empowerment. Our goal is simple—to help women feel confident, admired, and never alone in their journey.
Our Vision
Our vision is to build a strong, inclusive community where women feel empowered, accepted, and supported—both within the fashion industry and beyond. We strive to create a safe space for women and children who have experienced or continue to endure abuse, ensuring they feel seen, valued, and never alone.
More than just clothing, we are creating a movement—one that empowers women to step into their strength and embrace their journey with confidence. At the heart of our vision is a commitment to well-being, embracing all backgrounds, identities, and abilities.
