Meet the Artist

Adbel Ataurima

"In order to learn and acquire mastery, I had to train and set myself new challenges, expanding my knowledge in this area."

“My name is Adbel Ataurima. I was born in 1985 in Lurín, Lima. I consider myself a very cheerful, friendly and... collaborative man. I became interested in this art because of the jobs I have had and the career I studied (textile engineering), as well as the passion I feel for design. I learned everything I know today by directing the different factories that make sweaters in Lima. In order to learn and acquire mastery, I had to train and set myself new challenges, expanding my knowledge in this area. I work only with a few of my family; we are more of a technical team of professionals. We have weavers, seamstresses and finishers, each one in its specific area. They are responsible for the technical criteria.

“Starting to work alone has been very difficult; but with a lot of effort and work, everything can be achieved. At the beginning of operations in this textile sector, orders were scarce, but little by little with the confidence that they had in us, we had more opportunities with new clients. In the pandemic, we were forced to close for several months, and we believed that everything would end; but the orders arrived and we were able to continue operating with all our collaborators.

“The challenges that I had to face were many both on the economic, labor and emotional path. The pandemic did hit us, but we knew how to get up and move on without leaving our dreams aside. My dreams, hopes and plans are to consolidate my garments as one of the most outstanding lines of sweaters, with exclusive and widely trusted products.

“I seek to be inspired by landscape, drawings and paintings. What excites us is to see our products and designs on people, showing off and appreciating our work. I share my knowledge by teaching the management and production process in seminars and courses at the National University of Engineering, which makes me very proud to be able to instruct on my art. I am very happy to be part of the Novica family and the great artists that are here.”

FINDING YOUR SIZE

Take your measurements with the tape measure over your under garments. If your measurements fall between sizes you may prefer the next larger size. Inseam, skirt and dress lengths vary by style and will be listed in the item description. Our sweaters are knit in standard American sizes, however actual measurements vary by style.

BUST / CHEST

Measure around the fullest part of chest under the arms and over the shoulder blades keeping the tape measure level.

WAIST

Measure around the smallest part of the waist keeping the tape measure comfortably loose. Most garments use the low waist measurement noted below.

LOW WAIST

Measure around the body approximately 1.5" below the natural waist (above). This is the area where most pants and skirts actually fit.

HIPS

Standing with your heels together, measure around the fullest part of the body approx 7"-8" below the waist.

NECK

Measure around the base of the neck keeping the tape measure comfortably loose.

SLEEVE

Bend elbow slightly and starting at the center back of the neck, measure across the shoulder, to the elbow and down to the wrist.

INSEAM

Our standard inseam length for women is 32" and 34" for men; however inseam measurements will vary slightly by style.

 

Belts with buckles are measured in inches that correspond to a waist size however, most people do not wear belts on the waist, they wear them closer to the hips. A buckle belt measurement is take from the end of the "pin" of the buckle to the middle hole on the belt. Generally there are 5 holes for size adjustment, with a 1" space between each, so the middle hole will the be average size of the belt.

For at tie belt (no buckle) measure the belt portion end to end and half of the tie portion. This again is the medium size of the belt.

For a soft fabric tie belt it can be called "1 size fits most" and the entire length of the belt should be measured and listed.

UNICEF Market offers triple win pricing, where YOU the consumer, Children from around the world, and Artisans all benefit.

WIN # 1 You Save!

Handmade goods from developing nations usually pass through a series of intermediaries before being purchased by retail consumers.

UNICEF USA partnered with NOVICA, who works directly with artists through their regional offices in Asia, Africa and Latin America, allowing purchases from UNICEF Market to go directly from the artisans to fulfilling customer orders. By skipping steps in the traditional supply chain, you can buy high quality items for less than the regular retail prices.

WIN # 2 Children Benefit!

Each item purchased from UNICEF Market will benefit UNICEF's programs that provide lifesaving nutrition, medicine, education, clean water, emergency relief and more to children in need.
