Originally from Canada, Katarina Protsack has found her creative refuge in the heart of London, establishing the headquarters of her fashion house, Blue Nude, at Hackney Downs Studios. It’s within this vibrant, electric atmosphere that Katarina’s vision for her slow fashion label takes shape, effortlessly blending her love for art, music, travel and the vivid colour palette of nature with her keen entrepreneurial spirit.

Blue Nude is a brand with a soul, driven by the philosophy that fashion, at its core, can be both expressive and ethical. It’s a delicate balance of artistic freedom and  profound respect for socio-environmental realities. Each piece is crafted with intention, mindful of its impact, and guided by an unwavering ethos that creation in the 21st century must uncompromisingly resonate with responsibility.

For Katarina, fashion goes beyond aesthetics; it’s a matter of conscience. Blue Nude’s designs reflect a deep commitment to artistry, with respect for both the planet and humanity. The brand embodies a fusion of creativity and compassion, offering a fresh perspective on fashion: one that honours sustainability, craftsmanship, and a reverence for the environment and the artisans who bring these visions to life.

In short, Blue Nude stands as a modern testament to the idea that style, substance, and sustainability are not mutually exclusive, but rather, they can elegantly co-exist avec amour.
