Design by Outer Stitching past & future together now
Design by Outer brings past and future together, stitch by stitch, by conserving textile heritage and craftsmanship in the now, with innovation and concerns of ethics and sustainability for the future in the fashion industry.
Outer’s mission is to produce artistic clothing and accessories which inspires people to express themselves.
Outer uses innovative, experimental and sculptural approaches to fashion design and garment construction, combined with traditional textile techniques, creating her unique visual language and identity.
Each garment is an artisanal, aesthetical and social statement about individuality and empowerment.
Outer understands clothing as that layer separating the private and the public, from a personal perspective. Outer’s artwork and designs are focused on the tension between the uniqueness of the individual and the collectiveness of the society, the paradox of standing out and belonging.
