WORKSHOP-BOUTIQUE: ESPACE FLO

Since July 2019, Metamorphose has now been established in the ESPACE FLO boutique, a new boutique that brings together more than 75 artists, artisans and designers under one roof, in the heart of the Fleury West street in Montreal

It is in this environment that the workshop-boutique sits as the epicenter of the creative universe of the designer. Each garment is created and crafted with a particular attention to detail. Every step of the manufacturing process is carefully executed by a caring team, within this workshop.

Ethics

Aware of the long-term impact on the environment, each collection is produced primarily from the end of batches of fabrics from Canada & USA, in very small quantities. The workshop also saves all scrap fabric resulting from cutting and sends it to various non-profit recovery organizations or individuals wishing to use them for relevant projects. *If you want to get our scrap fabric for a particular project, do not hesitate to contact us: [email protected]Services

The attention and the care taken in the manufacturing of our products makes it possible to create exclusive, timeless and durable pieces. The workshop offers alterations and / or repair of your favourite pieces that may have been a victim of their success. For more details on our services offered and to know our rates, contact us[email protected]

With a selection of loyal retail outlets, a workshop-boutique and an online store, Metamorphose is a safe bet for anyone looking for quality, comfort & femininity.

Upon leaving school, she became the assistant to New York designer Carole Garber and for 5 years, learned the basics of the fashion industry. After a few years, she was ready and launched her own line: Metamorphose.Inspiration

Inspired in part by the material she works with, Karine adds her personal touch to each of her collections, which are, each season, the fruit of new discoveries. Early on in her career as a designer, she was able to surprise and demonstrate all her creativity by making her own fabrics. Not imposing any constraints on herself, she continues to handle and uniquely arrange materials to design new collections that are eagerly awaited by a loyal and enthusiastic clientele.

Since 2016, she has been working with painter Os Cane on the creation of the timeless OS X META collection where exclusive fabrics are made from the artist's existing canvases.
