# WE BELIEVE IN NO STOCK
Pre-order concept
Anna Ruohonen produces all her collections based on a pre-order concept. Everything that is produced is done on demand. The first pre-order production on her ready-to-wear collection was started on March 20th, 2021.
“We want to change the way we consume and make fashion. We want to reduce the amount of waste and damage done to the ecosystem and therefore we are shifting entirely to a pre-order system. All our collections will be made on pre-order only. We want to encourage slow shopping and well-considered purchases and we want to change the shopping mindset. “
How does it work?
You select a model, size and colour available. All the options can be viewed online and at our stores in Helsinki and Paris. You pay 50% of the price when placing the order and the other 50% right before shipping when the product is ready to be delivered. In case of any problems with the production, you will be refunded the entire amount you have paid. It is estimated that you will have your product ready within two months from the day you have placed the order with us. We will collect the orders for proximately 4 to 6 weeks or until the necessary item amounts are reached and then we will need 2-4 weeks time to produce them.
We are excited to be part of this new and sustainable way of production and shopping. And we are happy to be part of the slow fashion movement.
Thank you for making the change happen with us!
