Designer:
Kaisa Rissanen lives in an old wooden house, in Helsinki, Finland. She has a MPhil in theatre research but ended up founding a sustainable fashion brand and now a TAUKO magazine together with her best friend Mila. Kaisa enjoys having long walks in the forest with her rescue dog Wilma and exploring new places both close and further away. She is always ready for another cup of good coffee.
Kaisa gets her inspiration from the aesthetics of everyday life: a beautiful shadow on a busy street, a simple drawing by her three-year-old son, or a funny-shaped cloud in the bright blue sky. She admires gender-neutral styles, straight cuts, and practical details with a twist. “The best clothes are comfortable and create an uplifting effect.”
Fit and size:
Sizes 1 (2, 3, 4, 5) (6, 7, 8, 9): Choose your size based on your bust circumference. Add a recommended positive ease of 5.9–8.6"/15–22 cm. Pick the size that is the best match for your bust. Saranya Meromaa is wearing ALEXIS in size 3. She is 63"/161 cm tall.
Fabric recommendations:
Choose a medium weight fabric with no stretch. Consider using cotton, a cotton/polyester blend, linen, hemp, or light denim. The sample is made from Meri Rescue Hemp (100% hemp) by Named.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Caring for your fabrics is essential to maintain their appearance and longevity. Here are some essential fabric care tips to make your clothing last longer and look great.
First and foremost, always check the care label on your garments. While most fabrics benefit from similar care, certain items like wool may have specific instructions. For general care, wash your fabrics in cool or cold water. Hot water can degrade fibers and cause colors to fade.
Avoid using chlorine bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric over time. Instead, choose a phosphate-free detergent. These gentle detergents clean effectively without harming your textiles.
When it comes to drying your clothes, it's best to tumble dry on a low setting. This helps prevent shrinking and unnecessary wear and tear. For the best results, dry similar colors together to avoid color transfer. If you want to maximize the longevity of your fabrics, consider line-drying your clothes. This method reduces the risk of damage from the dryer’s heat and can also save energy.
Ironing your fabrics? Always check the appropriate heat settings based on the type of fabric you are working with. Utilizing the right heat can help you avoid burns and preserve the integrity of your garments.
If you have any delicate items, laundering them in a mesh bag can provide extra protection during the wash cycle. Always be mindful of embellishments and finishes when caring for your fabrics.
Ultimately, proper fabric care ensures that your clothes continue to look fresh and new. By following these easy tips, you can enjoy your favorite garments for years to come.
