My dear fashionistas, I hope you are well and ready for a new fashion adventure. Today we will continue our story about one unusual Swedish fashion brand that managed to connect the beauty of fine art and fashion in a special and specific way, resulting in unusual collections of wearable fine art, meet Limitato. I have refreshed these cold winter days with wearable fine art, and I highly recommend you to take out some brightly colored clothes from your wardrobes.
Limitato was founded in Sweden by two business management students, Emrik Olausson and Gustav Peterson, with the ambition to introduce a refined rock ‘n’ roll aesthetic and give Scandinavia its first stylish menswear brand within the advanced contemporary segment. Gustav and Emrik inherited a passion for art from their families. They need art to make their surroundings energetic, eclectic and to inspire creativity. Through partnerships with emerging artists, the brand intends to communicate and enhance its community seasonally. The language used by this brand to communicate with customers is mature, elegant, sophisticated, creative and lively.
Limitato is a brand that operates at the crossroads of culture, art and fashion, connecting creative freedom and expression through numerous collaborations with artists. The brand is closely specialized in creating wearable works of art, but not the ones you imagine in a museum but works that contain ubiquitous cultural phenomena that are actual at this moment. The Limitato brand nurtures a vision of unique visual art to iconic moments in music history, some of the prints come from famous artists, photographers or historical archives.
The brand name Limitato is inspired by the concept of “limited edition” and aptly sums up the brand’s unique concept, which is that a garment can become a kind of wearable fine art. By creating garments with high-quality prints of graphic and photographic art, the Limitato team aims to make art more accessible while also creating some seriously urban and quirky clothing with a unique and distinct aesthetic.
The great success of the Pitti Uomo platform helped launch the Limitato brand onto the international fashion scene. Over the course of one season, Limitato brand products went from being stocked in five stores to 150, and by the time the Spring/Summer 2018 collection was released, Limitato had become a true fashion icon. The brand works exclusively with a range of artists and photographers, whose work ranges from iconic portraits to abstract graphic art. Artists do not need to be well-known, the most important thing they must possess is authenticity.

Today we will continue our story about the Egyptian fashion brand MEROË, which managed to show potential customers that there is real fashion stress relief with its simplicity and practicality. Every MEROË piece of clothing is made with love and to last more than one season.
How was the MEROË brand created? MEROË was created as a real solution for all those who have a certain stress when choosing and finding simple and practical clothing pieces that can properly correspond to real everyday experiences, because all MEROË clothing pieces are designed and tailored with style and comfort in equal measure.
The MEROË brand was founded by Sarah Dawood, founder and creative director. Directed art education at London College of Fashion and Istituto Di Moda Burgo. Ms. Sarah Dawood has more than 5 years of work history in the fashion industry and business management. Her work in fashion began with passion, hard work and the ability to focus and never give up on her dreams. On one occasion Ms. Sara Dawood stated: “For me the process never stops, the design process is constant, it is constant everywhere. I design from life experiences, art, movies, music, places I’ve visited, people I’ve met along the way. In the end, I learned about their culture and traditions, and then learned from them. I taste, see and feel culture in its raw form.”
MEROË is on a mission of rational consumption, which means that the brand is working to change the perspective of the industry from fast to slow fashion, so that the MEROË brand will provide pieces that can be worn and loved for longer. The MEROË team believes that sustainable fashion should never compromise. MEROË carefully creates clothes with great style, high quality and impeccable fit. MEROË carries out all these processes through responsible procurement and ethical production so that they can be consciously kept and given a second life.
