The New Year collection hung on a rail in a dark room, with warm light coming in from the right. An emerald velvet blazer, a Cartagena-yellow silk shirt and a charcoal cashmere scarf with a saffron fringe.

One day. One wardrobe.

The clothes that work at the office do not work on the road. The clothes that work on the road do not look like something you lead a meeting in. We solve it in the weave instead of in the wardrobe.

Frans & Fest

Four garments, one window. The New Year collection is deliberately small and deliberately heavy on accessories.


The material

We measure before we claim

The cut, the proportion and the choice of material come out of a tradition that measures before it claims. That is why every figure we write can be backed up, and why every product page has a table where the claim stands next to its evidence.

Moisture transport, UPF, temperature buffering and crease resistance sit in the fabric and not in a battery. That survives washing, customs and ten years. A battery changes regulation, not just component.

The full material library

La Franja, en draperad sjal med handknuten frans i båda ändarna i kolsvart. Bilden visar plagget rakt framifrån mot en ljus yta av kashmir, med mjuk skugga under.
Cashmere 2/26, woven in Biella. The scarf weighs 185 grams and the fringe is knotted by hand, eleven minutes per piece.
Cashmere 2/26 in charcoal, woven in Biella. Fine hairs lie in layers over an almost black surface and catch the light from the left.
Cashmere 2/26. The most warmth per gram, and the most counterfeited fibre in the category. We require a fibre report per delivery.
European linen at 165 grams in natural white. Warp and weft are clearly visible and the slubs run as thickenings through the weave.
Linen 165 g. The slubs are the material, not a fault. It creases, and it is meant to.
Boiled wool felt, 5 millimetres, in pearl grey. The fibres have matted into a surface with no weave at all, with pills and fluff on top.
Boiled wool felt, 5 mm, for the slipper. Cuts without fraying, shapes without a seam.

The name is the strategy

Frans means fringe.

FRANS is the Swedish form of Franciscus. It is also the Swedish word for the finish on a scarf, the handmade detail that shows somebody wove something. ANDRÉ is the Latin half. Two names, one person, two worlds.

That is why the first product is a scarf, why the fringe is our signature instead of a logo at chest height, and why a single saffron thread runs through an otherwise Nordic construction. Those who know, know.

Sömmen, the house pattern. A square grid in charcoal with a single saffron thread through the weave.

Four collections

One system, four tempos

Three people in silhouette against the Stockholm archipelago at 59 degrees north, in low saffron evening light from the right. The outlines show how the garments fall; the faces are not visible.

Three people on the rock at 59 degrees north, in low evening light. The North is horizontal and drained of colour. Colombia is vertical and saturated. That is not a metaphor but a literal description of two landscapes, and it is why the fusion works: they do not compete for the same formal element. Read the full argument.
