About Filippa K’s sustainability work
Sustainability issues lie at the core of Filippa K’s daily work and long-term vision. These are the words of Filippa K, as presented on their website:
THE FILIPPA K VISION IS “FASHION WHERE SUSTAINABILITY IS THE GUIDE TO GROWTH”. ECOSYSTEMS AND PLANETARY BOUNDARIES ARE OUR INSPIRATION. WE WANT TO BE PART OF THE SOLUTION RATHER THAN ADD TO THE PROBLEM.
If fashion is to stay relevant and beautiful – inside and out – we believe it needs to be personal, simple and long lasting. That’s why our business idea is “to offer long lasting fashion based on our core values; style, simplicity and quality”.
We are dedicated to a carefully curated wardrobe built on personal style, and to circular design with a holistic approach to business. Sustainability is our guide to growth.

Work description
Since winter 2014, Anna Brismar, Green Strategy, has worked for Filippa K on various assignments involving editing and/or translation work.
Two of these assignments involved editing of Filippa K’s Sustainability Report for 2013 and 2014 respectively. Anna’s broad competence in sustainability and circularity issues within the fashion industry, combined with her strong writing skills, were here of special value. For the assignments, Anna worked closely with Elin Larsson, Sustainability Head at Filippa K.
Other past work for Filippa K includes translation of formal internal documents from Swedish to English.
