"With its new circular economy project, atelier b becomes the first Canadian clothing brand to boast zero-waste production. A major achievement for the two designers and founders of the Montreal company launched in 2009."
"Anne-Marie Laflamme and Catherine Métivier can be found in a workshop-boutique steeped in history, on the ground floor of a century-old building in the Mile-End neighbourhood. Since 2009, the two friends behind the atelier b brand have been working with their team to create sustainable clothing for women, men and children."
"These are timeless pieces made to last, designed and manufactured locally. Enough to dress several generations!"
"Natural materials, timeless cuts, local manufacturing, respect for workers, inclusivity, and the use of non-professional models have been their watchwords from the outset, making them pioneers in slow fashion and eco-responsibility in Montreal and Quebec."
Best practices are in action in Quebec! Atelier b is an innovative and responsible clothing and accessories brand specialising in slow design: a sustainable and eco-friendly approach.
"Co-founders of Atelier B, Anne-Marie Laflamme and Catherine Métivier create clothing and objects that are good for the planet."
"In addition to being a clothing brand, it's also a laboratory where a lot of research is done on sustainable development."
