OUR STORY

Founded in 2020 by designer Shir Levy Lavi, Refuture was created with the idea of rethinking fashion for the world we live in today.

The brand combines original design, reworked pieces, traditional craftsmanship and unexpected materials to create clothing with a more conscious approach to both design and production.

Rather than constantly creating from scratch, Refuture often looks at what already exists and asks how it can be transformed, reinterpreted and given a new future.

Over the years, Shir’s life in Japan has become an important part of Refuture’s visual language - from traditional techniques and everyday objects to Tokyo’s contrasts, energy and street culture.

About the Founder

Shir Levy Lavi is the designer and creative force behind Refuture. Her work is driven by an intuitive approach to design, curiosity, and a fascination with transforming the familiar into something new and unexpected. Now based in Tokyo, her work is shaped by the places, cultures, and objects she encounters along the way - particularly the craftsmanship, contrasts, and visual language of everyday life in Japan. Her approach moves freely between fashion, art, and experimentation, creating pieces that feel personal, unconventional, and distinctly Refuture.
