Breebaart

Another “designer” handicraft boutique is Breebaart, at Calle 50 and Calle 39, owned by one Hélène Breebaart, who came to Panama as a representative of Christian Dior 30 years ago and stayed on. Breebaart creates designer fashion and accessories that incorporate contemporary looks with Kuna art (she has a crew of Kuna seamstresses on-site), mostly for Panama’s rich and prominent women. There are some things for sale here, but Breebaart’s specialty is custom-made pieces that take about a week to make.
