Tigre Mariposa × Maravilloso

Wearable art inspired by nature

Inspired by traditional nature and borderland mythology, we design every pattern in-house — no stock art, no trends — then print on demand so each piece feels like a small portal you can wear.

The name

A butterfly tiger, and a marvel.

Tigre Mariposa — the Butterfly Tiger — is a South American name for the jaguar, whose rosettes look like wings pressed into fur. Maravilloso is Spanish for marvelous. Marivosso is both at once: the jaguar's authority, the butterfly's transformation, and the marvelous beauty of the natural world.

It is also the evolution of a name some of you already know. Shamantee became Marivosso — same hands, same jaguar, a clearer idea of what the work is for.

Where it comes from

The hands that tend the soil design the art you wear.

The prints are not sourced. They come out of the same practice as the land work — a photographer and regenerative rancher who works between Medellín and Vermont, born to a photographer and a jazz musician, designing clothing from what the seasons put in front of the camera.

Green hills and granite boulders under high cloud in the Colombian countryside, with a figure standing on the largest boulder.
The land the work is done on — Colombia, dry season.

The same hands run cattle on holistic grazing, photograph the land, and draw the patterns. That is the whole trick, and it is not a marketing angle: a person who spends the season in the soil sees the Turkey Tail mushroom in its architectural glory, the coastal wildflowers at last light, a palm frond refracting geometry — and then has something true to print.

Two sibling projects carry the other halves of it. Osso Lovo is the photography and the artist's own page. Green Bee Farms is the regenerative farming — a Vermont nonprofit that gives its methods away.

Transform boldly. Move powerfully. Live regeneratively.

Why Marivosso

Three things that are true of every piece.

  • 01

    Original art, made in-house

    Every pattern is designed here — no stock art, no trend-chasing. The subjects are real and specific: the Turkey Tail mushroom in architectural glory, coastal wildflowers at last light, a palm frond refracting geometry.

  • 02

    Premium cotton-touch, four-way stretch

    The fabric has to hold a photograph's worth of detail and still move. Cotton-touch handfeel, four-way stretch, printed all over rather than screened in one place.

  • 03

    Made to order

    Nothing is printed until you order it, so there is no warehouse of unsold garments and no dead stock to burn. It costs a few days; it saves the part that matters.

The list

Join the wild garden.

New prints, new journal pieces, and the occasional note from the field. No schedule, and nothing we wouldn't want to read ourselves.

This opens your mail app — there's no list software behind it, and no account gets made. You can also write straight to contact@marivosso.com.

Before you order

Made for you, then made.

Nothing sits in a warehouse with your name on it — the piece is made once you order it. That is the good part and the awkward part, so here is all of it before you spend anything.

  • Made to order

    Printing starts after the order does, so give it a few days before it ships. Rates and times are on the shipping policy.

  • Sizing, first

    Because the piece was made for you, we can't take it back over size or fit. The size chart is on every product page — or write first and we'll help you get it right.

  • If it arrives wrong

    Damaged, defective or misprinted: send a photo within 30 days and we'll replace it, free. The full terms are in returns & refunds.

  • Who you're buying from

    A studio, not a marketplace listing. The patterns are drawn by the same hands that work the land, and when something goes wrong the note reaches the people who made the thing. Where it comes from.

Where nature blooms into fashion.
