Why to buy it: Years ago, Perpetummobile discovered a closed warehouse in the centre of Barcelona with damask, floral and striped fabrics that had once been used to cover mattresses and upholster furniture.

The social company used them to make household items and accessories. Now Perpetummobile presents two collections of clothing, using not the original fabrics but printing those that had proved to be best sellers. Their aesthetics, print and colors compose Perpetummobile's universe.

What we love: Perpetummobile is a social company with a business model that seeks an economic benefit to promote the training of people who need a second chance.

This loose-fitting, straight-cut Perpetummobile dress with Japanese motifs can be cinched at the waist with a large bow made of the same fabric.
