ULTRA 10

Malaysian clothing label ULTRA, who specialise in sustainability in leading fashion have designed ULTRA 10 – the ten piece wardrobe. ULTRA and sustainability leaders LOHAS, Greenovate and The Wellness Works collaborated to produce a core wardrobe of ten pieces for 365 days of the year.

The made-to-order women’s collection, which is made of organic and recycled fabrics includes; a vest, a backless top, a cropped top, a white shirt/dress, a skirt, a top/dress, stretch pants, cotton trousers, a 2-in-1 blazer, and a 3-in-1 dress-jacket-skirt.

What I really like about the idea behind this collection is that not only is it practical in a space-saving sense, but also in an economical and environmental sense. You may return your pieces at any time for mending, recycling, upcycling or donation.

Stutterheim raincoats

“For anyone who does not want to look like a lost golfer in town.” The Swedish company Stutterheim Raincoats creates an updated version of the traditional raincoat worn by generations of Swedish fishermen. Simple, waterproof and straight-cut.

The coats, manufactured in Borås, are based on designs from the 1960s and are available in 2 colors: Arholma Svart and Arholma Vit. No Gore-Tex, Velcro and no reflectors, straps and strings.

“We got tired of never being able to find the right raincoat to wear when the skies opened. So we decided to make one ourselves.”

Aether Apparel

If you haven’t yet managed to find yourself a suitable minimalist piece of outerwear for this winter, have a look at Aether apparel.

Aether specializes in producing technical performance outerwear in a clean cut minimalist design. It was founded less than a year ago by two former film producers from Los Angeles. They felt there was a gap in the market:

We could either go to the obvious performance-driven clothing lines, thus sacrificing design and style, or shop the more aesthetically pleasing lines and sacrifice performance.

And so they created Aether: clothing that does combine technical fabrics with sophisticated design.

Owning one of these myself I can really say: this one’s a winner!
