Founder, designer and Creative Director Ann-Louise Andrén leads the development of new products in collaboration with a design team. Ann-Louise has always been interested in design and production and after moving to Hong Kong in her twenties, she set up her own business in 1988, designing bags and travel accessories under her own brand, Ceannis.

After ten years in Hong Kong, Ann-Louise returned to Sweden and Ceannis Living Accessories was established combining bags, accessories, and interior design products in a lifestyle concept. Ceannis is today a leading Scandinavian brand in lifestyle products. Ann-Louise is driven by her love of design and production, and to see beautiful new articles take form in the sample rooms are her highlight moments. Sustainability is a priority, reducing waste, creating quality products designed for long life cycles and selecting materials that are harmless to people and nature are aspects that have always been important to Ann-Louise´s creative process, and to Ceannis as a brand.

Swedish designer, Maxjenny Forslund, started her luxury Copenhagen-based clothing brand, maxjenny! in 2017. She owes her fame to combining clean lines, bright colours, and handmade colourful prints, which she designs using only a digital camera, a pencil, and a computer. The brand aims for 100% recycled or other sustainably sourced materials, and selects less intensive modes of transport — they deliver by bike in Copenhagen. maxjenny!’s upcoming outerwear is made in a recycled pet bottle fibre fabric with re-down and all prints she makes are all made with GOTS approved ink through certified processes.

Born and raised in Venice, Italy, Ify’s love for African fashion blossomed early in childhood, for which her Nigerian family takes most of the credit. Within a tight-knit African community in Italy, she was exposed to the many facets of West African culture, from its traditions and folklore to the meaning behind its vibrant colours.

Before starting OliveAnkara, she completed her studies with a PhD in Human Molecular Genetics at the International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, she first moved to Singapore to further her career with a Post Doctorate in Molecular Carcinogenesis at the National Cancer Centre.

Her move into the fashion industry started when she noticed the absence of African culture in Singapore while trying to source African prints to make her wedding dress. She took on the responsibility of bridging this gap with the creation of OliveAnkara in 2017, which also rekindled her love for fashion. It was not until 2019, buoyed by early successes and a growing loyal base of customers, that Ify turned her passion side hustle into a full-time career.

Driven by passion and her love for diverse cultures, Ify has centred her slow fashion sustainable brand around two core values: female empowerment and sustainability.

”As an architect, I’m trained to design buildings with a time-perspective of 100 years. On this design idea, I started Eduards Accessories Sweden.”

Award-winning Swedish architect/designer Cecilia Eduards has a passion for combining traditional Nordic handcraft and building techniques with contemporary urban design.

In 2013, after 10 years of architectural design work, Gothenburg-based Cecilia Eduards started to explore how to implement the sustainable design theories of her daily work as an architect into accessory design. Striving to create items to be loved for years, the goal was to find the balance between Scandinavian simplicity and contemporary design. As a trained architect, the aspects of beauty and function are equally important.

”Näver” is the Swedish word for birch bark and the Näver Collection, launched in 2015, is inspired by the traditional birch bark braiding technique used for centuries in the Nordic countries. The Näver Collection by Cecilia Eduards has been awarded the Form 2018 and Form 2020 design award by the Swedish Form Association and the FORM 2018 seal of quality by the German Bundesverband Kunsthandwerk e.V.

Cecilia Eduards runs Eduards Accessories from the Gothenburg Studio, implementing and exploring the architectural perspective on sustainable accessory design.

Natalia is a Brazilian-Canadian designer with an all-out passion for sustainability, fashion, and textile design. With a BA in Industrial Design, a diploma in Fashion Design, and 11 years of experience in the fashion industry, she is finally ready to take my place in the Sustainable Fashion Market through the Cottagecore Aesthetic.

Natalia was born in Brazil, but she started traveling very young. She spent her childhood in Germany and Spain, followed by a work experience in France. These experiences have taught her to embrace new cultures. her passion for History, Art, and Vintage grew through the years, with a British and European eye and personality. However, it was only two years ago, after five years of living in Canada, that she discovered Cottagecore.

Discovering this community has switched her mindset. It was a switch off from stress and a switch in the way she used to consume, the way she saw life, with an English-Vintage aesthetic that brings the calmness of a Monet painting. At that moment, she decided to create Wandwoods, a brand that advocates for a more sustainable, calm, and romantic way of life here in North America.
