About
Bobbine Berden is a visual narrative designer, interested in the relationship between consumers and clothing. She playfully translates her research into autonomous installations made of sustainable textiles, and launched her label REAL FAKE in 2022. Bobbine aims to illustrate the world from various perspectives. In addition to studying the relationship between consumer and garment, she also pays attention to the concept of re-evaluation. In 2019 she launched Strolling in Grandmothers Clothing (Flaneren in Oma's Kleren) with Evi Guldemeester. They challenge to design in new ways; where time, quality, pureness and (emotional) sustainability are at the core.
REAL FAKE is a playful plant label created by Bobbine Berden. Textiles, such as clothing and home
textiles, are transformed into colorful leaves that she incorporates into plastic plant frames. The
handmade plants take an ironic look at the artificial plastic plants that mimic natural processes.
Strolling in Grandmother’s Clothing is a collaboration between visual narrative designer Bobbine
Berden and journalist Evi Guldemeester. They connect young and old in a playful way by refurbishing
the clothes of the elderly, so that young generations can proudly stroll in them again. All elderly
people or their relatives have been interviewed, so that every piece of clothing/object carries the
story of the original owner with it. Strolling in Grandmother’s Clothing stands for nostalgia,
revaluation and sustainability.
