There’s a revolution brewing in studios around the
world, with sustainability-minded designers and
established houses alike grappling with the need
for a more considered approach to fashion. Styled by

What goes around comes around. Berlin-
based designers Rianna Nektaria Kounou
and Nina Kuhn of Rianna + Nina picked up
on this when they unfurled their vintage
scarves and began repurposing them into
kaftans, blouses, skirts and coats. Obi belts
from the 40s, couture silk scarves from the
80s and prints developed in-house are given
a new, non-linear narrative to withstand the
passing of time – and seasons.
