Känd för sin materialdrivna designprocess använder Sundkler tidigare använda material som kan få nytt liv genom processbaserade metoder. Hennes arbete utgår från svensk spillull och kännetecknas av en balans mellan traditionellt hantverk, materialinnovation och skulpturala uttryck.

"For me, this felt like a very natural collaboration," säger Sundkler. "I've always appreciated Swedish Stockings and was interested in working with tights as a material. When I began sorting the stockings by colour, they stopped feeling like waste and started feeling like a resource. I remember looking at the piles of sorted tights and feeling inspired by them as they were. The colours had already begun forming compositions, and the collection grew from a desire to preserve and translate those relationships into garments."

“This collaboration is a celebration of creativity, craftsmanship, and circular thinking,” säger Therese Groth, Product & Sustainability Manager på Swedish Stockings. “By working with talented designers through initiatives such as the Textile Movement Talent Program, we can continue exploring new ways to give materials a second life.”
