As Vivienne Westwood once said: "Conservatism stops us from making change, tradition gives us something to work with."
From the beginning, we have always strived to use the best quality fabrics, constantly improving our techniques. A big focus is on the quality of our buttons, which we rework in an elaborate historic process. Of course, we also gather new experiences every day, which we invest in the future of our design process, always striving to be better.
The core idea behind our dirndl is that everything we make is acceptable from a traditional point of view, like the use of authentic wool and linen blends, and our 7-row hand-pinned aprons, made with an intricate handcrafted process that all our dirndls feature. In general, we believe that a contemporary woman should engage with the principles of tradition, rather than the other way round.
We combine time-tested quality and aesthetics that draw specifically on craft and cultural traditions influenced by dynamic personalities and perspectives from modern day. Traditional dress becomes a way of allowing knowledge and culture from the past to live on in our clothing. Our dreams are what drive us. We resist commercialisation and are inspired by passion.
