Designer turns Manufacturer



Designers know only too well how difficult it is to source the right manufacturer for their collection. Designers can spend days and days of research trying to find the right production unit to make samples, seals and small run production and then, if they are not careful, the unit may just not be right for their collection.


Well worry not! Catharina is at hand to help new and emerging designers every step of the way. And she has taken the unusual step of opening her own sampling unit in
Wimbledon, specialising in silks and fine fabrics.


  


Catharina Eden is a Finnish born designer, who after graduating moved to England to pursue her life long dream of opening her own fashion label in the heart of the fashion capital; London. Catharina has spent years working on her own successful label and understands the requirements of being both a designer and a production unit specialist.


Catharina has worked at Alexander McQueen’s creative studio and at Ben de Lisi.


  


Being half British and half Finnish, she appreciates styling and fashion aspects from both countries and finds inspiration from both diverse cultures. ‘The energy, diversity and vibrant atmosphere of London are my major source of inspiration when designing a collection, but the purity of nature and calmness of life as well as architectural aspects in Finland acts as a balance and brings its own influence into the clothing.’


Catharina commented:


“I have had my label for over two years and I was becoming increasing frustrated to find the right production unit for me that understand the fine fabrics that my collection has. Eventually I decided to invest in machinery and offer my own services and this way I can have complete control of the high quality standards that I work too.”


If you would like to arrange a meeting with Catharina please contact Catharina on
