CHANGE IS HERE

SPREAD YOUR OPTIMISM. WEAR IT

Discover our non-industrial take on fashion. A trend that sets the tone to change the fashion industry. Small batches. Designed for circularity. Hand-cut and sewn in our Amsterdam atelier. That’s how we transform the industry piece by piece.

Let’s break the chain. Meet the makers. Let them show you their craft. Cutting and sewing garments, while you shop for your everyday green styles. We’d like you to create a look that sets you up for the future. Bold, new and optimistic. Crafted with a unique human touch.

Are you ready to wear your optimism?
Do like we do. Say, "Yes, future!"

WE’RE HERE TO TRANSFORM THE WORLD OF FASHION PIECE BY PIECE.

It’s our goal to create a systemic change in the fashion industry. How? By bringing back the joy of making garments. Local. Social. Circular.
