CHRISTOPH RITTER STUDIO is a London based fashion design label with the mission to push glamorous club wear into age of sustainable, ethical and transparent creation. Having studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Antwerp, Polimoda in Florence and Central Saint Martins in London, Ritter’s design approach is about border crossing collaborations that connect creatives from all over the world.
Seeing fashion as a tool to not only minimise pollution but rather to actively clean up the planet, Christoph Ritter Studio only uses discarded materials including textiles that are made from recycled ocean plastic, deadstock fabrics and second hand threads. Having worked for several specialist ateliers that create Haute Couture and runway pieces for the likes of Chanel, Dior and Salvatore Ferragamo, Ritter’s approach to fashion is based on reinterpreting traditional techniques in order to innovate forward thinking statement pieces.
Their body of work have been photographed for various magazines such as Schön, Vogue, Metal, Wonderland and i-D.
