Sturm Bros.’ does Slow Fashion

Slow Fashion is a little sister of Slow Food Movement. Both movements have similar premises, encouraging consumers to buy better less often, with an eye towards ethical production. Slow Fashion is at the center of Sturm Bros.’ creative process and business model.

The full name of the little store in downtown Excelsior Springs, MO is Sturm Brothers’ Custom Design and Fine Jewelry. Our middle name is Custom Design and custom is at the heart of the slow fashion movement.

Slow Fashionistas shop their closets, their mother’s closets and even their sisters before they purchase.  Their eye is trained to what suits their tastes, color palettes and life styles. Trends don’t rule a Slow Fashionista; it adds spice to an already beautiful wardrobe. Inheriting three well worn rings from Aunt Lucy bring joy to these ladies.  Why?  Sturm Brothers’ Custom Design use creativity and craftsmanship to turn those three beloved rings into a new-to-her jewelry piece that the Slow Fashionista will wear for her lifetime.
