THE STORY

BACKGROUND and ARTISTIC EXPRESSION

Hi my name is Tine Løgager and I run Angel Circle together with my father Jens Løgager. We started the company in 2002. Although I was born in Denmark, my family spent 2-3 years in Turkey when I was young and ten of my school-going years in Indonesia, plus a few years in Canada. I moved only moved to Denmark again in my adult life. This was because Jens was working in a Danish paint company, and he was sent out into the world to spread his knowledge about paint production.

I remember one of my favourite experiences in school in Jakarta was when we were introduced to the process of making batik, and I made my first hand drawn batik in art class. I found it fascinating. Although I later went on to become a chemical engineer, drawing and artistic expression have always been a favourite past time. So when there was an opportunity to work with batik, the decision was not hard to make.

The independent multinational lifestyle agrees with both my father and I. In the fashion business every day is different, seasonal deadlines, exhibitions, travelling to suppliers, designing new collections, packing orders are just some of the many different work descriptions when you are independent. The ability to sense what our customers would like is essential. The ability to communicate across many languages another. We have often found that you do not have to speak the same language to be able to understand each other and do business.

NO BODY IS THE SAME

Over the years we have developed a very wide range of styles, as the body is very diverse and each body has its own particular preferences.... no body is the same and... no person is the same....different bodies require different styles and shapes. The same body may require different sizes in different styles because they are shaped differently. This is the challenge. 

SUPPLIERS

This ability to make produce small quantities within the fashion industry is not normal, but we have a unique opportunity for this due to our handmade fabrics and loyal suppliers. This enables us to live up to the principles of SLOW FASHION where a company only produces what has been ordered, and is not subject to a minimum number of pieces per style or color required by the supplier.

We have worked closely together with our suppliers for many years and we know that our production lives up to the Danish textiles code of conduct with respect to CSR (corporate social responsibility). In fact we were already working with these principles in the 00´s, before there was a focus on CSR. Our cooperation with our suppliers are long-term, based on mutual trust and respect.

We work with small family driven flexible suppliers, who in contrast to big industrial corporations in for example China, are able to produce down to one piece per style. This also means that our production expenses are higher compared to an industrial sowing production.

THE CORNERSTONE

The cornerstone of our business is that we design and produce our own batiks, prints and plain coloured fabrics. This means that we can offer you fashion made from unique handmade fabrics. Thus our fabric costs are higher than the cost of buying industrial made ready dyed or printed fabrics. However it is our pleasure to be able to offer you this alternative. To know that our fabrics have that special handmade quality which makes you special.

Not everyone has the same passion for color that we have, but we see this as a good thing. People are different and have different missions in life. Ours is to add colour to yours. We give you that undefinable special something, that makes you feel good.

THE COLLECTION

Angel Circle fashion is an allsize wholesale brand from Denmark that sells colorful ladies clothing to boutiques. Plus size fashion for the independent creative woman, who stands in her own power and likes colorful clothes.

We are specialized in the spring summer collection which we sell based on a forward orders in June-September for delivery in February-April the next year. We have no minimum orders and are able to make small production quantities. As a retail customer, you are free to choose the styles and sizes you prefer and choose from the many fabrics, colors, prints, embroideries and batiks in each collection. We have a big selection of well tried blouses, tunics, caftans, dresses and other styles that are ongoing.

As we produce our own batik designs for our garments, our batik production takes time as it involves a particular procedure of batik steps that are all handmade by humans. This ensures that each batik garment is unique, and that small irregularities or what we call smoking effects in the fabric, are part of the batik charm.

Using only the best viscose fabrics for our quality garments, means that they last for a long time. We also only produce what our stockists order, which means that there is no overproduction. These traits in our production all contribute to what we call slow-fashion.

Our style is generally loose and flowing, our garments made in viscose fabrics which fall well on your body and allows your body to breathe. In our opinion plus size fashion is more about body shape than about size. So we have a variety of well-tried cuts and styles that fit different body types and are our standard recurring styles every season.  Interested to know more about our designs, then take a look at our web shop where you will find an array of articles from previous seasons.

You can find us at leading B2B exhibitions in Europe or contact one of our sales representatives for further information. If you are a B2B customer please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any special requests.

THE SHOWS

THE VISION

We are living in a very important time on earth and it is up to each and everyone of us to become the best version of ourselves in order to create a new version of life on earth. As the designer of Angel Circle, I believe that especially the feminine energy is very important at this time and that many fuller figured ladies embody a huge resource, power and grounding to share as their special gift to give to our life here.

OUR ENERGY

In my version of the world color is especially important. Each color of the rainbow has its own energy or vibration and can thus exhibit different characteristics with which it can aid the bearer. Normally when we are attracted to a certain color it is because there is something in its energy that we need. In fact color can be healing. It is my vision that the new world that we are creating is full of peace, freedom, happiness, love and abundance as each of us stand fully in our own power.
