Martina Dietrich is the owner, founder, and designer of Martina Dietrich Couture, a luxury sustainable fashion brand. Martina started her brand by using her understanding of the fashion industry. She worked in Venice, Italy for five years as a fashion designer and a creative director where she learned how the fashion industry worked.
When completing her “fashion studies”, she quit and made the decision to create her own brand. Martina then moved to Milan to work on her One of a Kind pieces. She is now based in LES, Manhattan, New York, which she calls home.
Martina Dietrich Couture follows a brand philosophy that is true to Martina. She explains that making one of every piece is the most sustainable way. She doesn’t have trends, collections, or drops, she has pieces coming and going, and says “I believe that the pieces I create are to find their new homes.” When she first started her brand she explained that the industry didn’t have a word for “sustainability,” yet it was something her brand always practiced.
“I believe we need only one,” she exclaims. Her One of a Kind pieces are what sets her apart. She only makes one, preserving the uniqueness of her work. “It’s important to have one good piece and not many less good pieces,” according to Martina. Each piece has her signature orange trimming, a unique design element.
Martina believes in RE·CREATE, ZERO WASTE, and MORE with LESS. She practices these principles by giving new life to forgotten garments, harnessing creativity and traditional skills to transform them into exquisite, one-of-a-kind pieces with couture finishes. Even shoes can be recreated and curated into a more refreshing style. She also takes leftover fabrics from previous creations and turns them into new unique accessories. She brings more value, more quality, and more longevity into one garment with less consumption.
