With a rebellious philosophy and a focus on sustainability and technology, Salim emerges as a brand with a unique lifestyle made up of avant-garde streetwear, androgynous aspects and extravagant details that reflect a cult luxury lifestyle, esotericism and the Berlin neo-bauhaus vibe.
Salim is a luxury, high-end sustainable fashion brand that doesn’t just talk about possibilities– the brand makes plans and implements them! “We believe there is beauty in imperfect fashion garments. We believe that each defect is like a scar, so they have a story to tell. Most of the materials we repurposed are rejected or discarded due to issues of quality, aesthetics or lack of usefulness. By transforming them into new products we raise their value and their history through design,” said Elizabeth Salim, founder, CEO and designer of Salim.
Salim collects 200-500 kilos of discarded materials every season and then uses these synthetic materials (leather, silk, polyester, cotton, linen, and stainless steel) to develop high-end, unique, upcycled fashion garments. “Unfortunately, only 20 percent of collected materials can actually be used because of the lack of recycling plants and government programs within the waste and recycling industry in numerous countries around the world. For example, 42 million tons of urban solid waste is generated per year in Mexico, yet only 14 percent is recycled,” Salim said.

The Salim brand believes that garbage doesn’t actually exist– it’s just wasted raw materials. “With our Zero Waste Pattern approach, small fashion collections are produced with the materials we have access to every season. With our conscious and ethical fashion brand, we aim to generate as little waste as possible, delivering unique, one-of-a-kind fashion garments that are equally ethically made and fair to the economy and sustainable labor industry,” Salim said.
As part of our manifesto and trademark, the Salim brand often includes yuyus in our fashion designs. “Made from recycled 316L steel, each skull is adorned with different natural exotic furs that were recovered from landfills or donated by certified ateliers listed in the fur labeling act. This certifies the origin of the furs and the breeding of animals free of animal abuse. Fur and leather are non-biodegradable due to the tanning process. In order to prevent them from being dumped in landfills and to reduce the extent of contamination on earth, we collect them and increase their value through upcycling,” Salim stated.
