LOVE by MarchAprilMay
May 29 – June 22
Take a step back from fast fashion and relax at this pop-up store. LOVE by MarchAprilMay is a nomadic store that wants to promote sustainable clothing. Pieces are released gradually according to the season, without sales, to maintain their value and ensure a long lifecycle as vintage clothing. The clothes are made with the idea of perfection in imperfection and the current concept is “clothes to wear in spring – clothes to wait for spring” embracing their longevity. Make sure to get your next piece here and engage in a slow fashion approach.
