& Other Stories presents a collection that unites Fashion & Innovation
We continuously seek new technologies and materials to evolve our designs towards becoming more circular. For us, fashion and innovation are intertwined.
Frida Billegren, Atelier Designer, & Other Stories
The 8-piece capsule features glamorously relaxed silhouettes, sumptuous textures, and an earthy colour palette. It includes two dresses, coordinating sets, one top, and one blouse. Jewellery in organic shapes, crafted from recycled sterling silver obtained through “urban mining” complements the collection. Urban mining is a process of recovering precious metals from discarded household waste and upcycling them into new treasures. The finishing touch is a boxy tote bag and a cardholder crafted with MIRUM®, an innovative premium material that is made from 100% bio-based ingredients, providing an alternative to animal leather.
The use of Mirum in this collection is the result of a close collaboration with H&M Group’s Circular Innovation Lab.
Fashion & Innovation: The Collection will launch on Thursday 22 August 2024. It’s available globally in selected stores and at stories.com
