From WASTE to WANT [Recycling]

{A love of flea markets & vintage}: Originally from Italy, designers Orsola De Castro and Filippo Ricci are the founders of From Somewhere, recycling from 1997. From Somewhere is a UK based creative sustainable fashion label. All the womenswear collections are made of luxury designer waste such as proofs, swatches, production off-cuts and end of rolls.
Their beautiful one off pieces are made from respectfully recycled vintage clothing and incorporate retro fabrics & prints no longer available from modern sources. They are flirty, feminine, funny & always impeccably finished by highly skilled seamstresses.
