atantô Brussels : Sustainable and Inclusive Fashion. Our First Creation

We are a new fashion brand from Belgium, deeply committed to ecological and ethical principles. At atantô, we co-design each garment according to your desires and needs, and produce them in Europe using natural materials. Additionally, ensuring inclusivity in our designs, our aim is to offer our creations in a wider range of sizes, from 1 to 10. A Community Co-creation: The Lou Shirt The launch of the Lou Shirt is the result of a close collaboration with our community. By seeking your opinions and suggestions, we were able to create a shirt that truly meets the needs and desires of its members. From selecting materials to crafting the finishes, every stage of the design process was influenced by your valuable feedback. The Lou Shirt is a unisex shirt made of cotton, offering comfort, elegance, and quality. Limited stock True to our commitment, we have intentionally chosen to create our first piece from unused deadstock. As a result, this is a very limited edition. The Lou shirt is available in three colours: white, pink, and finally, a blue and white striped version. Please note that there are only 30 pink shirts available. Made in Portugal We carefully selected the Spring workshop in Porto, where we met the entire team, including Sara, who oversees our production. We place great importance on meeting our partners in person and visiting their workshops. This allows us to choose the materials and colours and to understand their working methods. We had the opportunity to meet them during our recent visit to the Première Vision trade show in Paris, and then during our trip to Porto to develop our first pieces. Human contact is essential to us, and we are delighted to introduce you to our partners Inspiration : Versatile and Timeless For the creation of the Lou Shirt, we drew inspiration from a vision of fashion that is both versatile and timeless. We aimed to design a unisex piece suitable for all occasions, whether for a workday or a casual outing. Elegance was central to our approach, which is why we included a dandy collar that adds a sophisticated touch while remaining modern. The hidden placket is an essential detail for us: it creates a smooth, streamlined appearance, showcasing the quality of the fabric and the precision of the cut without visual distraction. Finally, the two large pockets not only enhance the style but also add subtle functionality, making this shirt unique. Every element of the Lou Shirt has been crafted to offer a perfect balance between aesthetics and practicality, while reflecting understated, universal elegance. Size guide

Our story Fanny and I are two former colleagues who became friends. Fanny, a fashion designer and pattern maker with experience at several Belgian fashion houses, and I, Gwen, with a background in communications, form a complementary duo. After completing a course on "Entrepreneurship in Fashion," we decided to launch our own clothing brand. To bring our project to life, we chose various approaches such as incubating in an entrepreneurship-friendly environment and adopting a pre-order strategy. Meeting suppliers at trade shows like Première Vision and visiting their workshops in Porto were crucial steps. Despite encountering some challenges along the way, our complementary skills allow us to grow together with humour and kindness. Our project is now at a critical phase: the concrete launch of our business, and we need your support. Thank you for your support, it means a great deal to us. Be at the heart of atantô’s progress on @atantobrussels. If you have any questions, we are here to help. Fanny and Gwen 🩵 See you soon!
