OUR PHILOSOPHY:
“We believe that sustainable fashion has style and that sustainability is a question of good style. Design bears responsibility. It is trend-free and stands up to the rapid changes of the times. Production under fair conditions and the responsible use of all our resources is the basis of our actions.”
Clemens Dörr
THREE STATEMENTS, ONE LOOK
Our goals stand not only for us as a company, but for all those who accompany us – as customers, suppliers and partners. They reflect our appreciation of people and materials and our aspiration to create minimalist, unusual and urban fashion. and urban fashion.
URBAN DESIGN FOR INDIVIDUALISTS
Every material, every type of production and every look has a story that belongs to us. fits. Twice a year, a purist festival is created just outside Munich, individual and urban collection that reflects the spirit of the times and makes them ELEMENTE-CLEMENTE-It-Pieces. Their origin is visible and and their design makes them unique. We love minimalist looks and casual silhouettes that accentuate the personality of the wearer. “The The head that looks out of the collar is more important to us than the collar.” (Clemens Dörr). Our motto is therefore: “Slow fashion for a long life.”
ECOLOGY AND SUSTAINABILITY
When selecting materials, ELEMENTE CLEMENTE focuses on ecology and sustainability. For us, these are not trends, but part of our DNA. We offer our customers slow fashion made from ecological materials, recycled and upcycled fabrics. We only order goods that are produced responsibly and transparently. We manufacture our collection in Europe and in our partner production facility in Tunisia. We cooperate with fashion labels that stand for ecological and social production. We reject exploitation, forced labor and child labor. We partner with numerous regional companies in order to avoid long transportation routes, conserve natural resources and strengthen the respective business location.
APPRECIATION AS STATE OF THE ART
As everyone knows, fast fashion has conquered the world. Order, wear, throw away is a mass phenomenon that is gaining momentum. Criticism of this is nothing new, but it is necessary. Nevertheless, we don’t want to make you feel guilty, but offer alternatives. If you take care of the world, you take care of yourself. An anonymous item of clothing from mass production generates neither beauty nor attention. But a dress with history and appreciation passes this on to the wearer. “Fashion should emphasize the wearer’s selfhood.” (Clemens Dörr). We therefore rely on high-quality fabrics, natural colors and flowing cuts as a framework for more personality. We see this as “the next level fashion”.
