Fashion that is circular.
SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS Helping you to repurpose and reimagine fashion
We wish to EMPOWER modern consumers by creating ECLECTIC high-quality pieces that are beautifully and SUSTAINABLY MADE. As a reflection of the current times, we STRIVE to address notions of OVERCONSUMPTION, RAISE AWARENESS and bring forth INNOVATIVE ways of REDESIGNING the clothes we wear.
‘Merging the old and the new into a hybrid piece of clothing serves as a key driver in my work, to come up with innovative ways to extend the life span of clothes and stimulate positive change in the fashion industry.’

#GLAMCYCLING is a creative and transformative process focused in upgrading existing products into avant-garde, ultra-glamorous versions.
‘It is our mission to elevate upcycling, push its creative boundaries and extend the life span of clothes.’
Glamcycling logistics: we take garments apart and save everything from buttons to trims. Like a gigsaw-puzzle, most gathered components get repaired and creatively repurposed to elevate others. We use clever seaming and pattern cutting to create minimum wastage. Big silhouettes is our thing, excess fabric means excess ruffles!
Transparency
We strive to offer full transparency of the making process by intentionally disclosing the origin of our materials. This highlights the story behind our pieces and the cultural references they carry.
Packaging
Staying true to our sustainable mission towards the environment we are committed to ethical packaging choices and sourcing materials within the UK. Our packaging ‘look’ may change seasonally depending on availability.
Circularity. We aim to be at the forefront of circular packaging thereby, in some cases we may retain the original packaging of a product as we consider this an environmentally friendlier solution.
ZERO WASTE
Our approach is focused in using recyclable, repurposed and compostable components in every step of the process.
CO2 Footprint
FIGHT AGAINST PLASTIC. Our garment bags are water soluble and biodegradable, made from polymers that dissolve in water.
100% Recycled
Our beautiful DB boxes are limited edition and made from recycled cardboard. Many customers reuse them in creative ways.
All DesignBlender tags, labels and tissue paper are made from recycled paper.
Our online shipping gear is often repurposed made from recyclable cardboard boxes.
REDUCE
Striving for minimal design packaging we use wax stamps instead of stickers that are made from natural, paraffin-free waxes.
