Rubin & Chapelle stands as a beacon of innovative design, ethical production, and sustainable luxury. Founded in 1997 by the visionary duo Sonja Rubin and Kip Chapelle, this boutique embodies a commitment to crafting garments that not only elevate the wardrobe of its clientele but also contribute positively to the global fashion ecosystem.
At the core of Rubin & Chapelle’s ethos is the belief that clothing should empower the wearer, transcending mere fashion to become a source of strength and confidence. This principle guides every aspect of their creation process, from conception to the final stitch. The brand is celebrated for its hands-on approach, collaborating closely with skilled local artisans to honor old-world techniques of sewing, draping, and tailoring, while embracing modern movements towards ethical and sustainable production.
Commitment to Sustainability and Ethical Practices
Rubin & Chapelle’s dedication to ethical production is evident in their meticulous sourcing of materials and fabrics. Their exclusive prints, brought to life in a certified pollutant-free facility in Berlin, and organically dyed leathers, reflect a deep commitment to environmental responsibility. A significant portion of their silk comes from GOTS certified mills, emphasizing the humane treatment of silkworms, a testament to their pursuit of utilizing 100% humane materials.
