Unrecorded is a sustainable fashion business that pioneers in Amsterdam with minimalist and colorful designs. Founded by Jolle van der Mast and Daniel Archutowksi, the label offers a collection of [minimalist clothing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit) — from basic t-shirts to chromatic hoodies, as well as a range of magazines, handcrafted ceramics and natural unisex perfumes.

The sustainable fashion business zeroes in on essential seasonless apparel to counter throw-away culture. Since the retailer sells directly to the consumer, the pieces are made to be affordable. In addition, the entirety of Unrecorded's collection is made out of materials — including [100% organic cotton](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/natura-collection) and lambswool, that are certified by the [Global Organic Textile Standard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organic-cotton-collection).
