Meet Arianne Carrillo, co-founder of BENEAI and the driving force behind our sustainable practices and collective work. 

As Director of Systems & Project Development, Arianne is dedicated to creating fashion with purpose, focused on preserving and elevating Peru’s rich cultural heritage through craftsmanship and artistry.

Her journey started at a young age, when she was inspired by the creative world of her mother, Ani Alvarez Calderon. Eager to dive into the fashion industry, Arianne honed her craft at Parsons School of Design, where she developed a strong eye for sustainability.

Arianne’s career led her to New York City, where she worked for Naeem Khan in the Bridal Team, later joining the ANK production team with clients like Oscar de La Renta and Carolina Herrera.

In 2019, Arianne returned to Lima to collaborate with her mother, and together they founded BENEAI, a brand that blends tradition and innovation.
