Slow fashion means designing, creating, and buying quality clothes that are made to last. Slow fashion encourages slower production schedules, fair wages, lower carbon footprints, and (ideally) zero waste.
We produce one capsule collection per year in limited quantities. All our garments are made in a Belgian social atelier that helps unemployed people to be reintegrated in the job market. This slow fashion approach means that we can closely follow all the phases of the design and production process. We give ourselves the TIME to source the best fabrics and best producers in the European Union to fully study our prototypes, to innovate, to get feedback from our users and to react on this feedback.
Our printed patterns are designed specifically for us by young artists, textile designers and illustrators enabling us to produce one-of-kind pieces.
