redress Design Award Collection

For her Redress Design Award collection, ‘RE.SKI’,  Friederike takes aesthetic inspiration from the shape and structure of the inflated packaging fillers she designed after a research project on packaging alternatives to reduce waste. She creates functional winter clothing from upcycled production surplus and adds features such as quilting, along with oversized fits and elasticised waistbands to prolong the lifecycle of the garments with the wearer as their body changes.
