Happy Monday all!
Today I want to put the focus on a brand that embraces and promotes traditional ethnic craftsmanship - a collaboration project including artisans from all over the word, where the emphasis is placed on sustainability and women's economic and social independence.

Jeanne ZIZI Margot de Kroon, the founder of Zizi Vintage, having worked for a big and unethical retail company, decides to completely quit the modeling industry and focus studies and worldwide women empowerment projects because as she says:
"Fashion for me means story telling and the stories of the clothes I wear have to resonate to my beliefs. Because of this, I now no longer shop in chain stores, big companies or online. From countries like Guatemala to India, Lithuania to Ethiopia, I have gathered my wardrobe and found the most intriguing and inspiring pieces that all carry a unique story and connect me to another time, place and or person.

So nice. I like the vintage clothes.
ReplyDeleteDon't know what so vintage about these clothes, I like them, especially the colours!
ReplyDeleteThe fabric they are made of is vintage as well the cut and the patterns. They have a deep retro feel.
DeleteSounds like a brand worth supporting and the cloths are beautiful.
