Alchemist is taking a stance against overproduction and discount culture in the fashion industry. We will not be participating in Black Friday Sales. Instead, we will donate 5% of our Black Friday 2021 Weekend revenue to Fashion Revolution to support them in funding their campaigns for a fair, safe, and transparent fashion industry. We don’t […]
SUSTAINABILITY
Alchemist is born from the desire to combine sustainability with luxury fashion. Founder Caroline Mewe believes fashion and ethical business practices are equally important. That’s why we want to create beautiful clothing that is ethically produced made from sustainable materials.
The Alchemist collections are built to be worn through different seasons. The focus of the collections isn’t on following trends, but on high-quality designs that fit well. Every collection, we re-introduce essential pieces in new colors and fabrics. These essentials have been fitted and tested so they can lay the groundwork for a superb wardrobe.
Our philosophy:
We believe that no single thing or person is an isolated phenomenon. Chemistry only starts when different elements interact.
search for perfection
According to myth and legend, alchemists were able to transform everyday, ordinary objects into something extraordinary and fantastic. They sought the formula to create gold. To the alchemists, gold symbolized the perfection of all matter, both material and spiritual. Like those mysterious scientists, we want to combine different elements to create a special and striking synthesis, something that surpasses its individual components. We believe that every single person that helps to create our collection brings equal value. Only together do we create gold.
respect
Alchemist creates fashion with respect for people and the planet. Sustainability is at the heart of our brand.
ANIMAL WELFARE
Alchemist is committed to treating animals with the same respect as human beings. We are part of nature, meaning that we see animals, trees, rivers, mountains, and all beings as our equals. Fabrics and yarns from animals are used in only our knitwear and are always certified. Together with our suppliers we continuously strive to […]

This also means that we think that the production of our collections should be done in an honest and sustainable manner, from start to finish.
