the BRAND.
SUMAVI revamps your long lasting wardrobe with reinvented, sustainable, unique, and seasonless pieces that reflect your personality and individuality. Using SUMAVI's unique signature textile art techniques, we give garments a new life with a funky, cool, and contemporary soul. Our pieces are for those who value individuality, craftsmanship, art, sustainability, fashion, vintage, and our planet. Whether you're a surfing cowboy, a rooftop farmer, an urban lumberjack, a vegan cowgirl or simply your extraordinary self, now more than ever, sustainability and individuality make our hearts sing. Inspired by the Californian boho hippie culture, the laid-back American lifestyle, Retro glam and a dash of European 'je ne sais quois,' each SUMAVI piece gives off an edgy and unique vibe.
SUMAVI believes that every garment has a unique story to tell and deserves to have multiple lives in a sustainable world, regardless of whether it's vintage or pre-owned, branded or unbranded, well-traveled or not. Fast fashion and runway trends harm our planet by creating pollution and waste. SUMAVI is committed to reducing fashion waste and preserving our planet's resources - One reinvented piece at a time.

Meet Su, the creative mind behind SUMAVI. Born and raised in Switzerland, trained at one of Milan’s renowned fashion schools with first-class honours and inspired by her former home of choice, Venice Beach, CA. She has worked alongside fashion masters and international fashion houses around the world, while also creating her own shoe and sustainable doggy lifestyle brand. With a love for flea markets and vintage finds, she began experimenting with textile art nearly a decade ago, reinventing pieces she loves and giving them a new spin. SUMAVI reflects Su’s own eclectic style. It's a mix of vintage, fashion, art and design. Every piece is funky, stylish and unique. She is now based between Zürich and Ticino.
