OUR STORY

“StudioWunderbar: Discover Our Exclusive Recycled Wool Coats – Where Sustainability Meets Style”

Embarking on a journey as a fashion designer after graduating from the Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague in 1996, my passion led me to the fascinating world of costume design for theater and film. I absolutely love my job!!

In 2020 an unforeseen turn of events occurred – the outbreak of Covid-19 brought a sudden halt to film productions. With an abundance of time on my hands, I found distraction in creating unique pieces from materials I stumbled upon at my costume workshop. I started with old scarfs and blankets, crafting unique coats and kimono-inspired designs. The joy I derived from this creative process sparked an idea, and thus, StudioWunderbar was born and after Covid I couldn’t let go of designing new things. I started combining designing movie costumes and working on StudioWunderbar designs.

Sustainability at the Core

At StudioWunderbar, sustainability is not just a buzzword; it is the heartbeat of our brand. We are committed to treading lightly on the planet by using only preloved materials, repurposed clothing, and dead stock from other productions. Embracing the challenge of sustainable fashion, we meticulously reverse the design procedure – first, we explore the available materials and then craft the item until it embodies the distinctive StudioWunderbar look.

We use preloved wool blankets, unique knitted deadstock upholstery fabric, pre-loved clothing, tablecloth,….what ever get’s us inspired.

 

The Beauty of Uniqueness:

Our recycled wool coats and all other designs are truly one-of-a-kind creations. By sourcing preloved materials, our designs are very limited, adding an exclusive allure to each piece. Embracing the imperfections of recycled materials, we weave a story of authenticity and uniqueness into every coat. With StudioWunderbar, you’ll own a fashion statement that not only showcases your style but also your commitment to a greener planet.

That’s also why we are proudly producing everything in the Netherlands. By keeping our production close to home, we reduce our carbon footprint and support local craftsmen.

 

From elegant long coats to playful short designs, our range caters to every taste. Embrace the warmth of recycled wool while making a conscious choice for our environment. Step into a world where luxury meets eco-consciousness, and join us on our journey towards a more sustainable future. With each recycled wool coat, you contribute to a brighter and greener future, embracing fashion that’s not only stylish but also responsible.
