about

Thank you for taking the time to get to know me.

YOOST was created after having worked in the fashion business for a few decades. I realized that most decisions were based on targets, numbers and volumes leading to heaps of stress, dead stock and overproduction. I decided to step out of the loop and do things differently. All my garments are therefore made from leftover, organic, GOTS certified or recycled fabrics reducing their ecological footprint to a minimum. 

Most of my friends know me as an activist for the queer community. You'll find loads of stuff online such as video's, tv formats and even some funky tunes you can dance on. Those experiences were all amazing and got me where I am now. However, I feel more comfortable sharing my story by creating individual and timeless garments that you can wear just about anywhere. Actually, I like to call them Elevated Basics; garments that you can wear all the time. I do not really care for the whereabouts. You see, I have a thing for authenticity. I care for you. Hence, I kindly ask you bring your best and wear my garments like no one else. After all, you bring my garments to life. 

Unique in every way, all my garments have been numbered by yours truly. Each garment is therefore as individual as you are.

Sourced and manufactured in Portugal.

There is only one you,

handle with love.
