Description
The Patria model from the Butterflies Collection honors the legacy of Patria, Minerva, and María Teresa Mirabal—three Dominican sisters who were murdered in 1960 for opposing a brutal dictatorship. Their courage and resistance led the UN to declare November 25 the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
Designed by Numa Torres with artwork by Inma Medina, Patria blends cultural heritage, artistry, and historical memory. Handcrafted by Numa by Spanians, each sandal symbolizes strength, transformation, and sisterhood through the enduring image of the butterfly.
Wearing Patria is a tribute to bravery and a celebration of freedom, identity, and the power of women’s voices.
