Slowly Fall Into Slow Fashion

Written By Alexandra Garbett

Slow fashion - what does this mean? It is about buying less, choosing well, and making it last, which also means taking your time when you are shopping. It celebrates beauty, quality, and sustainability—moving away from a rushed fast paced enviroment to embrace clothing that reflects care, identity and a history. In Södermalm, you’ll find shops and brands that embody these values.
