You can appreciate everything at face value, but it’s learning the stories beneath that tightens bonds between people and the things around us. Starting today (23.06.2022), Berlin-based design platform White Label Project will be returning for a four-day fashion, jewelry and design pop-up that puts stories front and center. We’ve been fans of this platform for a while: since 2019 the initiative has been showcasing slow creations from artisans in fashion and design, supporting communities and encouraging sustainable production. The market includes the likes of ceramics, jewelry and accessories by Ukraine’s Gunia Project, handmade bags made by the Wayuu people of Colombia by Hilo Sagrado and hand-woven Moroccan carpets by Limala. All in all, 30 mostly women-owned fashion and design labels from around the world will be selling their pieces and sharing their stories.
The program starts at 10h every day so you can meet the designers, enjoy coffee and croissants, and pick up the best of the pieces. If you’d rather come late, there will be discussions and drinks on Friday (24.06) between 17-21h with a Pisco Sour bar and wine from the likes of Kolonne Null. So put on your shoes, venture over to Kreuzberg’s Denizen House, and travel the world through design and fashion…
