Pomandère

Italy · Est. 2008 · Mid-range

Pomandère is a minimalist Italian designer label for women, founded in Zanè in 2008 by Carlo Zanuso. His family had spent more than 30 years making shirts for other brands in a historic Veneto fashion district before launching their own label, and that sartorial know-how still shapes its style, which the brand sums up as rigour and fluidity, androgyny and femininity: tailored pieces in pure geometries and soft, natural tones, made to be worn every day for years. The shirt is the heart of the collection, from striped poplin and habutai silk styles to shantung shirts in viscose, linen and silk. Around it sit shirt dresses, dresses, trousers, skirts, knitwear, coats, shoes and accessories. Production is entirely Italian, with most garments made in the family's own factory near Vicenza using local suppliers. Pomandère favours natural materials such as linen, cotton and silk, and shares its environmental work through its Pomandère for Green and Transparency Project pages. It also makes a line of fragrances for the home and the person. The brand opened its first flagship store at 26 Rue Saint-Sulpice in Paris's Saint-Germain neighbourhood, and sells online across Europe, the US and other markets.

USA · Est. 2015 · Mid-range

Argent is an American designer workwear label for women based in New York, founded in 2015 by Sali Christeson and Eleanor Turner. Christeson spent a decade in the Bay Area's finance and technology scene struggling to find work clothes that were both bold and practical, while Turner, a Savannah College of Art and Design graduate, designed for J.Crew, Tory Burch and Tommy Hilfiger. The name comes from the Argent lumber company founded by Christeson's great-grandfather, and the brand champions self-expression and radical equality at work.

Ioana Ciolacu

Romania · Est. 2010 · Mid-range

Ioana Ciolacu is a Romanian designer label for women, founded in Bucharest in 2010 by designer Ioana Ciolacu. With a background in architecture, she approaches clothing through construction, proportion and movement, then lets something shift: a line runs further than expected, volume interrupts the body and structure gives way to softness. A London College of Fashion graduate, she has worked with Stella McCartney. The range includes dresses such as the Khaki Cable Dress, Dahlia Dress, Ripple Balloon Dress and Spiral Dress, blouses, corsets, crop tops, bodies, shorts and Balloon Trousers, plus the Fold Jacket. Accessories include gloves, socks, tights and bags. Each collection is developed through material experimentation and produced in Romania with a close network of local manufacturers. The label treats sustainability as a design constraint rather than a claim: fewer, considered pieces, local production, responsible materials such as deadstock fabrics, cotton, silk and linen, and garments made to last. Ciolacu won the Designer for Tomorrow award in 2013. The independent fashion house has been carried internationally by retailers including Farfetch, Moda Operandi and Zalando.

Waltz Studio

USA · Est. 2014 · Mid-range

Waltz is a minimalist American designer clothing label for women, founded in San Francisco in 2014 by Danielle Colen. A native New Yorker with a background in landscape and architectural photography, Colen earned an MFA in fashion design at the Academy of Art University and worked as a patternmaker before launching her own line. Her love of strong lines and precise shapes runs through every collection, built on the belief that fashion should elevate the everyday without frills or excess. Inspired by the simplicity of menswear but cut for a woman's body, Waltz makes seasonless wardrobe staples: dresses, shirts, tops, trousers, jeans, skirts, jumpsuits, jackets and knitwear in natural fabrics such as cotton, organic cotton, linen, wool and lyocell. Patterns are cut in the San Francisco studio and garments are made in the USA. The label's ethical approach rests on domestic manufacturing, careful tailoring and long-lasting pieces designed to slip into an existing wardrobe rather than chase trends. Racked named Waltz a San Francisco womenswear brand to watch in 2016, and the label has been featured in Metal Magazine. Its collections have been stocked by West Coast boutiques including Voyager, Anaise and Anomie.

Metiseko

Vietnam · Est. 2011 · Mid-range

Metiseko is a sustainable Vietnamese designer clothing label for women and men, founded in Hoi An in 2011 by French couple Erwan Perzo and Florence Mussou. Taken by the local customs and landscapes of Vietnam's central coast, the founders set out to capture the essence of the country in original prints, creating a European-chic line with an East-meets-West spirit. The collection includes women's dresses, tops, jumpsuits, pants, skirts and kimono jackets, men's shirts, pants and jackets, and silk scarves, ties, bags, jewellery, cushion covers and fabric by the metre. Garments are made in Vietnam in its own sewing workshop, where one tailor creates each piece from start to finish and signs the label in pencil. As a slow fashion brand, Metiseko partners with local artisans. Its 100% mulberry silk is produced locally, supporting traditional silk making in Bao Loc, then dyed with non-toxic dyes and hand screen printed by local craftsmen. Its GOTS-certified organic cotton comes from India and is dyed and printed with a partner near Saigon using reactive dyes.

Blluemade

USA · Est. 2015 · Mid-range

Blluemade is a minimalist American designer clothing label for men and women, founded in 2015 by husband-and-wife team Alex Robins and Lilly Lampe and now based in New York. An academic and an arts writer, the couple had no plans to start a fashion brand until linen dresses they designed for travel drew questions from friends. Their research into what makes good linen led them to Belgium. The gender-neutral line is inspired by vintage farming and workwear garments and historic textiles that age well over decades. It includes linen caps and bucket hats, tees, Italian nylon shorts and seasonal linen garments released in small editions. Everything is made in the USA, in New York City's Garment District. The name explains the approach: "blue" for the founders' love of indigo, vintage denim and blue-dyed textiles, "made" for a commitment to ethical production, and the extra "L" for linen. Its Belgian linen is certified Masters of Linen, produced entirely in Europe from field to fabric, and meets OEKO-TEX Standard 100. Blluemade has been featured by Gear Patrol, and its founders have publicly campaigned to protect the zoning that keeps garment factories in Manhattan's Garment District.

Maria La Rosa

Italy · Est. 1993 · Mid-range

Maria La Rosa is an Italian luxury handmade accessories label, founded in Milan in 1993 by designer Maria La Rosa. Drawing on a childhood in Sicily, she discovered an old loom in Paris and wove her first fabrics, using them in the Nineties to create her first bags with ancient techniques. Her daughters, Alice and Lisa, grew up among looms and shuttles and have worked alongside her for more than a decade in a women-owned family business. The heritage brand creates woven bags, clutches, socks, tights, pouches, hats and hair accessories, all made in Italy. Its iconic Game clutch is made from loom-woven ribbon that is then braided, and its socks, from silk to cashmere, are developed alongside every collection. Each piece is handmade in the atelier in a courtyard of old Milan, without mechanical aids and in limited editions. Loom weaving is combined with knitting, macramé, crochet and embroidery, using high-quality Italian yarns and favouring natural fibres, drawing on the brand's historic archive. Maria La Rosa socks were sold exclusively at Barneys for 25 years, and the brand is stocked by La Rinascente in Milan, Bergdorf Goodman in New York and selected boutiques worldwide.

St. Agni is an Australian minimalist designer clothing and accessories label for women, founded in Byron Bay in 2014 by Lara Fells and Matt Fells.
