Shooted in Berlin, Germany, in July 2020
These items are as usual unique pieces, season free, gender free and trends free. Aesthetically, the pieces are meant to enhance the uniqueness of the wearers, to empower them.
Garments have history, there is so much behind. The people who designed it, the people who made it, its users. In the current fashion system we are all part of a losing game. Let’s make it a win-win for people and planet
One of our premises is that a clothing piece should be a playground, a possibility to question its given form and function. A jacket can be a backpack, or a dress. A pant can be a top. Sleeves on, or off, etc.
We include this element in the pieces we rework in the form of multiple functionalities or many possible ways to wear. It is our invitation to get hands on and be part of the creative process, which does not end in our studio.
In these looks, the public will rediscover their favorite tHERAPY styles mixed and melted with new ideas and techniques.
Through tutorials and workshops we encourage people to be more creative with the clothes they already own. To support our project, we sell the items we make on our online shop and via stockists in Berlin, Buenos Aires, Cordoba and Amsterdam.
We are working to become a participative and non-formal educational project through art and fashion. Selling upcycled products is not enough to have an impact towards changing a failed system. If everything goes well, in 2021 we will have our own space and we will turn into a physical space to work for and with our community.
