Alternative fashion collection against fast fashion

The collaboration-project between renowned Dutch fashion designers Alexander van Slobbe and Francisco van Benthum is a response to fast fashion chains. Van Slobbe and Van Benthum acquired the leftovers the fashion industry usually leaves behind at its production sites. These garments, fabrics, parts of bags and shoes became their point of departure. By manually adding new layers to this ‘prefab’ basis, their pieces regain the exclusive signature of the designer.
