The brand Antenora is a new entry for this spring-summer 23. Located in Italy, in the beautiful Marche region, Antenora production is entirely hand-made with care and passion. In fact, they select the softest leathers and brush their shoes with customised colours.

A technical curiosity from the world of footwear: do you know what “fussbett” means? Fussbett is a German word which means footbed. In fact, Antenora shoes are fussbett sandals. Therefore, shoes with an ergonomic footbed, which is a structure that provides 100% comfort.

Artisanal fashion excellence #formodernhumans

Today we introduce The Silk Slip Dress by Marc Le Bihan.

More than a 90’s comeback, it is a real timeless piece of artisanal couture. Its minimal design will make you stand out without screaming. Indeed, it’s the essence of elegance.

No one like Marc Le Bihan provides that sense of nonchalant elegance, which is understated, and never out of place. But also, his design makes you want to wear beautiful pieces in your everyday life. Because you build your wardrobe of meaningful garments over time with items you love to wear. Clothes you select with attention, privileging quality over quantity, choosing that special one rather than a shopping bag full of disposable fashion.

Discover The Silk Slip Dress

About the design
The design point is a sleek slip dress featuring thin shoulder straps, a draping front neckline and a v-cut along the back. Impeccable tailoring. Fluid straight line and a relaxed fit. Under knee length.
Understated, timeless, seasonless, artisanal couture.

About the colour

Also, for special occasions, pair it with heels. You don’t need anything else!

Private shopping trend

/ Leave a Comment

Also megabrands launch the service!

About four years ago, we started this new thing called private shopping to offer an alternative shopping experience, physical or digital. Which is about delivering personalised service to your home.
A limited, let’s say very limited audience, enjoyed this more intimate participation. Most people’s reactions were: What? What’s that?

Of course, our selection of international brands and independent designers is unique. Indeed most pieces are available only at suite123. That intentionally sets us out of the mainstream, so we talk to a niche audience who loves fashion research. In other words, nonstandard people.

However, the news said that Maison Valentino launched the same service under the name “Chez Vouz.”
So, people? Are you still sarcastic now?

We are happy about Valentino’s choice. Maybe now, the concept will be more widespread. And thanks to the power of the brand, a larger audience will learn about it. Indeed, that is the point. Most people do not have an independent viewpoint but need megabrands, celebrities, and influencers to feed them with a line of thought.

By the way, back to people like us, who appreciate independent thought. People who need creativity, good design and a precise selection. Because we do not need more, we need less, much less, but better, avoiding pointless overproduction and fashion waste. So, an evolved vision of fashion, that cannot ignore an ethical approach and attention to people and the planet.

What’s private shopping?

It is an alternative shopping experience, a personalised service. We schedule a private appointment and come to your home where you can try on some clothes. Also, for special occasions, you can have your made-to-order dress. We take your measurements and deliver the item as soon as ready.

You are not in Milano? WhatsApp shopping!

If you are not in Milano or the surroundings, the service is available online, too. Book a video call. We’ll guide you through our catalogue and deliver clothes directly to your home.

How do you request the service?

Drop us an email or WhatsApp.

We’d love to help and be in touch with you!

Tailoring vs mass products

/ Leave a Comment

Valuing quality over novelties

Tailoring has nothing to do with mass products. Indeed, they are two worlds apart. Why make this point clear? Because what and how we buy, links to the change we want to make. In fact, it’s about promoting a cultural shift far from the novelty-obsessed fashion industry. To this end, changing the perspective of what we consider new is crucial.

Mass products: ready to wear and trendy items

With the term mass products, we identify the “production of large quantities of a standardised article by an automated mechanical process.” Specifically, in the fashion industry, we call it pret a porter or ready to wear. In other words, mass-produced clothing with an average price range. Both top brands and the “average market” garments are mass-produced.

You can call these garments new because they come from a new collection, a current season, or a new delivery. But that doesn’t imply specific quality standards. Nor anything significant in the context of climate change.

Ready to wear is trendy based, cheaper to manufacture and convenient for the consumer. But this business model has reached a tipping point. In fact, the impact it has on the planet is devastating and undeniable. Mass-produced clothing is the result of capitalism, an economic system based on the exploitation of people and the planet’s resources. Since this system believes in endless growth, it fosters overconsumption in the shape of trendy items pushing people towards novelty obsession.

Tailoring: quality over quantity

On another level, we find tailoring. Which means pieces manufactured by artisans, made by skilled hands. Therefore, clothing from ateliers or small realities. They would provide good quality in limited quantities reducing fashion waste.

While mass products change continuously, offering new items that last a breath of wind, tailored garments focus on quality and artisanal workings. In fact, their designs don’t change that much over time. You don’t buy them because they’re trendy, but because you’ll wear them for a lifetime.

Most importantly, tailoring brings an added value, mass products, instead, represent the perpetration of a destructive system.

What if what we consider new is wrong?

The Fringe Maxi Shirt

Genderless fashion #formodernhumans

Today we introduce The Fringe Maxi Shirt by Meagratia.

The image of this long shirt, with fringed trimming decoration, is unique and elegant. But it’s easy to wear. Since the ribbon is tone-on-tone, it features a refined monochrome pattern, which adds beautiful detailing while being delicate.

The designer creates pieces with a soul: genderless, timeless, and wearable. In fact, Meagratia’s style is special and detailed but never excessive. And this vision perfectly reflects in his capsule collection. Indeed, the Meagratia collection shows a clear idea of fashion without making too many pieces, which would be pointless from a sustainable viewpoint. Plus an excellent artisanal quality.

Discover The Fringe Maxi Shirt

About the design
Band collar shirtdress with two side slits. A yoke on the shoulders defines a comfortable fit. The design point is a rich fringed tone-on-tone trimming which embellishes the shirt along the shoulders, top front and cuffs. Specifically, the knit fringes are original and made of a special material, cut into tapes and knitted. Meagratia uses typewriter fabric (Japanese poplin cotton) that is slightly thin, supple and has a firm texture.
