Are you a girl with curves, boobs and ass? - "I love that, but I don't think it would look good in my size..."
Or a guy who is bored by regular clothes? - "I really wish you did menswear!"

I hear both a lot and therefore have created a crowdfunding project to remedy this and create a new line for plus size women and a new line for men!

As you may know, I make clothes.
While I have always strived to make clear that I do not wish to exclude anybody from wearing Anthracite based on their sex, gender or body type (every item in my shop is available by measurements for either sex), I do realize it may be hard to imagine oneself in it when it differs from what is shown in the product images. And that simply giving the option to state one's measurements (boy or girl) on every item might not be enough.
You want to see fashion specifically made for your body type and shown by an appropriate model.

I have been wanting to do this forever, but considering the magnitude of the projects it has always held a waiting position due to lack of time and funds. But with the help of you and your friends, it's doable!

If you are a curvy girl or a guy who wants to be well dressed or just believe in this project, contributing is super important! Sharing the link is also a huge help. (Some of you have a network far exceeding mine on facebook alone.)
It can't happen without you and even 5€ are greatly appreciated. Contributions from 5€ to 1000€ will receive rewards!

You can get custom made items, prints, bracelets, limited edition items, you can choose which designs make it into the collections, get your very own photoshoot and much more!

Please do help make this happen. smile



SPOILERS! (Click to view)
Btw, your money is safe insomuch as that it will be returned to you should the aimed at amount not be reached.

All that being said, my plan once this has succeeded is the following:

I will, of course, begin designing and researching materials and fabric, but first of all I will compile a list of questions into a survey. One for the boys and one for the girls.
In it I will be asking all sorts of questions such as what type of items you usually buy online, what you never buy because it never fits, what is important to you regarding the fit, which parts of your body you'd want to give emphasis to, and and and.



For all the info on what exactly the goal is, how the money will be used and what the rewards are, please go here: http://www.startnext.de/en/anthracite-kollektionen

Awesome! I keep looking at your clothes thinking "Ugh. Awesome, but how exactly do you fit a big bra underneath it...?" This plan should solve my problem. smile

Thanks! I hope so too. I keep thinking: Is it possible to get 1000 people to give 10€ (13$)? Or 2000 people to give 5€ (6,50$)? It doesn't seem that unfeasible.

But I do need a bunch of people, and we need to work together. smile
