FABB | The Sustainable Fashion Accelerator

Iron Roots was founded in 2017 by three friends who were fed up with the fact that almost all athletic apparel is made from plastic. When they started to look for alternatives, they couldn’t find any, so they decided to take matters into their own hands. They make athletics apparel that doesn’t release microfibres (a type of microplastic). This means that it doesn’t release tiny pieces of polluting plastic every time it is washed, and emits about 60% less CO2 during production compared to polyester clothing.

The founders of J-Lab3l love fashion, but they love our world more. They believe one should not exclude the other. They value ethical production, organic and sustainable materials and fair working conditions in the supply chain. All J-Lab3l garments are produced in certified factories, selected by J-Lab3l and experts in the field. They try to reduce waste into a minimum and always use the most sustainable resources they can find. The team is continuously striving for a good balance between giving and taking from our world and our workers. To J-Lab3l, that is justice.

Studio Miyagi was founded by two friends in Vienna to fight against pinching bras, and to create a feeling of comfort that accompanies you through the day. In their studio in Vienna, they develop sustainable bodywear that meets the modern demands of urban citizens. Doing Yoga in the park, being an eager beaver in the office or dancing in the club, the fusion of lingerie and activewear makes the MIYAGI’s wearable all day long. Due to their love towards planet earth, they feel a strong responsibility as a young label to put a strong emphasis on sustainability.

Using resource-saving materials, Montreet creates sustainable activewear for climbing, running, and cycling. Their unique garments are made from fabric designed by local artists. Montreet items can be repaired when worn or damaged, or converted into a new product. With the Sustainable Development Goals as part of their philosophy, the Montreet label is sustainable, unique, and circular.

Filanda n.18 is an ode to the antiques hunters, the slow-travellers, the enthusiasts  of hand-crafted treasures, and the art collectors who find beauty in artisanal products. They are a fashion design lab exploring heritage textiles and interpreting them into ready-to-wear collections. Each collection tells a story through the use of textile techniques that have originated across different geographies and time – from Uzbeki ikat to Venetian lace from Bengali kantha to Japanese boro.

GOOD KRAMA is a slow fashion label that produces high quality, versatile and trans-seasonal pieces. They blend cultural tradition with innovation by mixing hand-woven fabrics with modern designs. They make clothes from two different types of materials: Cambodian luxurious, hand-woven fabrics created on a traditional wooden loom, and upcycled materials from fabric remnants and deadstock of local garment factories.

Nicetomeetme is an eco-activewear label for yoga, training, and running. Their fabrics are 100% made from sustainable materials, including organic cotton, recycled polyester, and recycled PET bottles – which are cleaned, ground, processed into granules, and then spun into yarn. Nicetomeetme items are ethically produced in Europe, packaged in sustainable or compostable packaging, and shipped in a climate-neutral way.
