'Franziska Schlupski' is a slow fashion brand, creating more than a classic special occasion gown. It is the traditionally made alternative to mass production clothing, size discrimination, seasonality and low-cost factories that profoundly shape todays´ fashion industry. Manufacturing the garments 100% locally in Switzerland, offering any size and keeping designs limited, made to order (no surplus produced) and seasonal independent are core values. The preference of biodegradable and recycled materials whenever possible is another key element.
