our story

Once upon a time.......

Lærke, a young Danish woman, traveled to Peru to immerse herself in the country’s vibrant culture, rich history, and ancient traditions. Little did she know, this journey would change her life forever. During her travels, she met Adriana, a spirited Peruvian from Lima, who warmly shared the essence of her culture. As their friendship blossomed, they discovered a shared passion for fashion and a mutual desire to create a positive impact. Despite their seemingly different backgrounds and heritage, they found common ground in their design and textile traditions. Together, they explored the rural heart of Peru, but it was a defining trip to Amantani, an island in Lake Titicaca, that truly shaped their journey. Here, they were introduced to the profound concept of Ayni, which would inspire their vision for the future.

“A universe of hygge and heritage”

Adriana, hailing from Peru, and Lærke, a proud Dane, came together to create Ayni, a vibrant fashion and lifestyle brand. Their journey began with a mutual passion for fashion and a vision to build a purpose-driven business. At Ayni, we believe that empowered women have the power to change the world, and we’re committed to demonstrating that responsible business practices can lead to both impact and success.
