Collab | Vélez x Encanto

Overview

Vélez, Colombia's most iconic leather and accessories brand, partnered with Disney's Encanto for the only official co-branding with the film in Latin America. As Brand Coordinator, I led the visual execution of the collaboration: from concept development to photo production, packaging, POP materials, and in-store activations across the region.

The challenge was to translate the magic of Colombian biodiversity and culture into a collection that felt true to the Vélez brand while alive with the spirit of Encanto. The result was a collection where every detail tells a story, embroidered flowers, exotic animals, and the colors of the Colombian landscape brought to life not only in the pieces themselves, but in the store environments where the world of Encanto took shape. A celebration of identity, craft, and what happens when two iconic brands share the same roots.

Vélez - Disney

The Process

The Problem

Two iconic brands, one shared story. Vélez needed a collection that felt true to both its 35-year craft heritage and the world of Encanto - Disney's animated celebration of Colombian culture without losing either identity in the process. The challenge: translate the magic of Colombian biodiversity into leather goods, packaging, and in-store activations that could travel across Latin America.

01

Concept Development

Defined the creative direction connecting Vélez's artisan leather craft with Encanto's visual universe, flora, fauna, and Colombian cultural identity as the common thread.

02

Art Direction

Led photo production and campaign imagery, bringing the collection to life through visuals that balanced Vélez's sophisticated aesthetic with the warmth and color of Encanto.

03

Packaging & POP

Designed packaging and point-of-purchase materials that extended the Encanto world into retail from the iconic Archaeology backpack with jaguar relief to in-store activations across 70+ locations.

04

Regional Rollout

Coordinated visual execution across Colombia, Panama, Peru, Costa Rica, Guatemala, and El Salvador, the only official Disney Encanto co-branding in Latin America.

The Impact

Campaign featured Totó La Momposina as cultural ambassador.
