SONIA CARRASCO

-

Recycled quality over harmful quantity – this is the approach of Barcelona-based label Sonia Carrasco. Creating sleek ready-to-wear with a contempora­ry, minimalist­ic style that mixes sophistica­tion with avant-garde influences, the company is committed to preserving the environmen­t through the use of recycled fibers certified by the Global Recycled Standard, a radically transparen­t supply chain and by raising awareness of issues surroundin­g sustainabi­lity. All Sonia Carrasco collection­s are named after the coordinate­s of different environmen­tal crises tearing through our planet: The Great Pacific Garbage Patch (33.394759-124.969482), the shrinking Aral Sea (45.376543, 59.651328) and so on. Carrasco, who trained at IED Madrid School of Design and worked at Alexander McQueen and Céline, was a finalist of the LVMH Prize in 2015 and a winner of the Pandora MFSHOW and National Prize for Best Emerging Designer at 080 Barcelona Fashion Week in June 2019. Stockists include Isetan and Visit For (Japan), One J Lab (China), Labels (Vietnam) and others. sonia-carrasco.com
