We are honoured to be featured in Billie Eilish’s sustainable fashion Guide in our City !

Cultural sustainability agency BLACK PEARL has created a sustainable fashion guide for the European tour of Billie Eilish HIT ME HARD AND SOFT: THE TOUR – an invitation to explore each tour stop more consciously and creatively, through local fashion solutions.

Billie’s European tour will touch 17 cities: Stockholm, Copenhagen, Hannover, Amsterdam, Berlin, Cologne, Prague, Krakow, Vienna, Bologna, Paris, Barcelona, Glasgow, London, Manchester and Dublin.

For each of these cities, the cultural sustainability agency BLACK PEARL has curated 17 different guides to spotlight local fashion gems — from independent designers and vintage stores to repair spaces and community-led initiatives — with the purpose of highlighting those doing powerful work in sustainability.

The Circular Atelier Amager has been included to represent Copenhagen and the inspiring ways it’s showing up – through intention, practicality or cultural rhythm.

These guides are an invitation to celebrate what’s happening close to home, support the bigger conversation on sustainability, or simply discover something new. We are Grateful to be part of this moment.

Sustainable fashion is a process built on small, intentional choices.

It is found in a Vintage jacket that carries a history, a local design focused on ethics or workshop where you can learn to repair rather than replace or discard.

The guides are a starting point. In each city find curated local spaces, makers and initiatives helping to shape a more thoughtful and responsible fashion future.

Billie Eilish and the commitment to sustainability.

The American singer-songwriter Billie Eilish and her team are committed to reducing the tour’s carbon footprint through partnering with fans, venues, vendors, and communities and offering more sustainable tools and solutions.

In fact, over 70% of a concert’s carbon footprint comes from guests attending the shows.

In the Artist’s website, under the Sustainability section it is possible to find simple sustainable solutions to reduce our impact on the planet: use public transport, bring your own reusable bottle – refillable water stations at every show, eat plant-based meals and shop consciously !

A big thanks to BLACK PEARL and Billie Eilish – and her team – for working towards a positive change and giving us the opportunity to expand our network.

The Atelier Celebrates its 2nd Year

At this time of the year, the Atelier celebrates its birthday, and I like to pause and look back, retracing all the moments that have passed, just like you would with a special relationship.

Because yes, I have a special relationship with the Atelier. I love this space, not only because it allows me to unleash my creativity and dedicate myself to what I enjoy, but also because it has proven to be the perfect way to meet people in the neighborhood and start feeling like an integral part of this community.

Every day here is different, just as the types of projects and collaborations we carry out are varied.

Internships in the workshop

This year, I had the pleasure of having Trine and Mia with me, who contributed in a special way to the growth of the Atelier with their skills and creativity during their internship.

Trine is a multi creative that loves to work with multiple fibres and materials, she knit, hand wave fabric, sew clothes and much more. (@creativeincopenhagen)

Mia is a talented and intuitive creative that can visualize and create accessories and clothing with incredible ease. (@miamillscornershop )

Sewing and Embroidery Skills Sharing

Vanessza and Paulina used the space to share, respectively, their knowledge of sewing and embroidery during beautiful classes.

Vanessza is a great tutor in terms of sewing clothing. She enjoys creating clothing from scratch and upcycling garments with her unique style. (@fvanessza)

Paulina is instead an embroidery lover that surprises everyone with her creations. She blends traditional techniques with modern ideas. (@tejeborda)

Totebags for
The Nomads and the Bean

Tote bags made from fabric sourced from thrift stores like Frelsens Hær or Røde kors were created for one of the most original cafés in the neighborhood, ‘Nomad and the Bean’ ( @nomadandbean ) .

The tote bags are sold in the cafè at a promotional price, to promote the use of the reusable bags instead of the paper or plastic ones, during the purchase of Mark’s local roasted coffee beans.

We Support Likeminded

A 5-meter-long train was created for the outfit of Camma Okami ( @camma_music ) , an emerging singer in the Danish music scene, for the Simbaprisen event.

Camma had important phrases printed on her outfit, addressing climate change, human rights, and discrimination, with the goal of encouraging influencers and content creators to use their platforms to talk more about these issues and have a positive impact on their audience.

Consultancy and Tutoring at DIS

Last year I had the pleasure to see a project I contributed to take shape.

In DIS Copenhagen, a group of educators dreamt to have a sewing workshop for the students, where they could sew, knit, repair, make and learn new techniques.

The Atelier offered a consultancy about what is necessary in order to have basic, but still functional, working space and give some intro classes to the educators about fabric, sewing machines and basic sewing.

In short, I am grateful of this second year, rich in interesting encounters, exciting projects, and with a great increase in the number of garments repaired.

See you in the Atelier
