new collection

organic, ethical and sustainable fashion

THE CONCEPT

Atlantis is our starting point, this land of gods, which may have survived a catastrophe and persist, hidden by walls of water. A dream that inspires us to look closely to the problem that is happening in our oceans and that we have neglected for several years.

The garbage in the sea, in particular plastic, is a problem that some have tried to correct, but that is yet to eradicate. Between silhouettes of goddesses and sea creatures and their tones and much more, we drew attention to the protection of the planet, including our oceans.

THE FABRICS

We used only sustainable fabrics. 100% of the collection is vegan and PETA APPROVED, made of organic cotton with GOTS certificate and 100% hemp, whether it is on canvas, soft jersey or mesh.

about

Hi there! We are Raquel and Sofia, twin sisters bonded by many things, including the passion for Fashion Design.

We grew up together, and together we developed all kind of interests and skills, what lead us to the same university course. So, once more, we stayed together, and studied what we loved the most. Now, we maintain together to create our own brand!

We are based in the beautiful country of Portugal, and you can find us at our atelier in Sesimbra, near the beach and the mountains. There we do all the thinking, the research, brainstorming and design of our collections. There are a lot of fabric swatches around us as well as books ad cactus!

The patterns are made by us and we test each one of them in old fabrics until they are perfect at our eyes. Then we cut them in the real fabric and sew it with love. And sometimes we do the printings or embroidery work.

In the end we do all the work of shooting the lookbook, campaign and product photos. We have a lot of fun doing it, as well as the marketing and promotion.

When we have to contract someone to help us in the patterning or sewing processes we chose local workers.

We aim to change mentalities through our clothes, and hopefully make our planet an healthy place to live. Always caring about sustainability and ethic.
