About
Julie Vej
founded her label Mottainai Studio, while studying sustainable fashion design in Copenhagen.
During her studies, she did experimenting with textiles, upcycling and aesthetics.
She never felt attracted to the fast and seasonal fashion, but choosed instead to start her own Art studio where she could create and explore her own universe of Slow Aesthetics.
Concept
The essential of Mottainai studio surrounds the passion of preserve resources.
Therefor all materials used are discarded or donated. Either from smaller Danish designers or recycle stations in the local area. Julie Vej is striving to show how leftovers can turn into beautiful aesthetic artworks.
