World Travel Dreaming

Today we’d like to introduce you to Sophia Stupperich, the graphic designer behind our fabulous textile print. As most of you Antithesis fans will be aware, travel is an important theme throughout our collections. So when we stumbled upon her dreamy atlas prints, we immediately fell for them.

Originally from Germany, Sophia studied Communication Design and worked for a handful of publishing companies and design agencies in Vancouver and Berlin before coming over to London to undertake an MA in Graphic Design at the London College of Communication. ‘Moving On’, her series of map cut-out prints was actually part of her final project. ‘Although the concept of travelling has been one of the first dreams of mankind, it has rarely been the focus of investigations itself. Inspired by the Herman Melville quote, “It is not down in any map, true places never are,” the project examines travelling being an ongoing path without a destination’, she explains.

Check out her website for more examples of her work.

Work In Progress

As creative director, Renée has been experimenting with different shapes and fabrics to develop the first Antithesis collection. Using basic geometrical shapes, her aim is to create versatile garments that can be worn in many ways. For example, the garments shown can be worn in a a few different ways depending on the occasion. Some are made versatile via zippers, others have drawstrings or can be reversed allowing customers to adapt each garment to their own needs.

Introduction

This blog is a diary of the thoughts, feelings and inspiration behind the development of our slow fashion brand, Antithesis, which we aim to launch in September 2012.

Countering fast fashion, our aim is to design garments that are physically and emotionally durable. We are focused on developing clothing regardless of trends or seasons and offer women the opportunity to wear stylish yet timeless clothing that will stand the test of time. Being a strong advocate for slow fashion, we believe good design should last and be cherished.

We are young, aspirational women and would like to share our journey with you. Hopfully we’ll get to the destination we seek. However, of real importance is the journey, and we’ll be using this blog to first and formost document where we go and how we get there!
