About Brand:

Sustainable fashion brand based in Costa Rica that works with upcycled materials and focuses mainly on denim and button down shirts. Andrea Kader experiments and pushes boundaries to create products that are one-of-a-kind, versatile, and timeless. The materials are locally sourced, their production process is transparent and they produce each piece in their studio. Andrea Kader believes that fashion should be circular, and the company is working towards a future where the clothes people love are never discarded, but transformed and reinvented.

Name comes from: designer’s name

Inspired by: an everyday lifestyle of a versatile busy stylish human

Why you started: too much clothing waste in landfills, too many design ideas and the need of using design as a problem solving tool instead of becoming part of the 2nd most polluting industry of the planet.

Where you are heading: to the world  

Explain to your grandma what you do: I take her old clothing and transform it into pieces that I would wear today.

About Life:

It’s a game. Trying to never take it too seriously and enjoy the ride

Bored if: stuck in traffic or long airport lines

Feel like dancing if: i’m in the mood and the music is amazing

Hungry for: pizza

Excited when: I see someone wearing our brand or when i see my dog or when the food arrives at the restaurant.
