Sustainibiliy and Production:
One of our biggest goals is to be as sustainable and Eco-friendly as possible. We try to get our materials locally sourced, or by suppliers with sustainability in mind and good working conditions. We make small collections so that we know everything we make will come to good use, and provide as little waste as possible. We always use leftover fabric to make accessories, so the waste is minimal. The clothes we make is designed to last for years.
All clothing items from MARIA JUTERUD are made in our studio in Oslo, Norway.
