Tekla and Auralee present their Autumn/Winter collaboration, a limited-edition collection inspired by the calming rituals of Japanese Onsen bathing. Blending Scandinavian minimalism with Japanese design philosophy, the collection reflects a shared appreciation for craftsmanship, material excellence, and timeless beauty.

The collaboration introduces a selection of towels, sleepwear, outerwear, and accessories, with designs rooted in the soothing experience of an Onsen bath. Featuring Tekla’s signature organic cotton terry and poplin, and Auralee’s expertise in fabric development, the pieces combine comfort with elevated elegance. Key highlights of the collaboration include an “Onsen-sized” towel and outerwear pieces such as a down jacket in « Snow Stripes » and a merino wool robe coat in « Soil. »

Colorways and textures evoke the natural landscapes surrounding Onsens, while each piece embodies a balance of warmth and lightness. The collection speaks to both brands’ dedication to craftsmanship, offering unisex designs that are as functional as they are refined.

« By combining both brand’s expertise and shared values, we are proud to introduce a unique collection that centres and celebrates bathing rituals across Japanese and Scandinavian cultures, finding the synergies within” – Charlie Hedin, Founder and Creative Director at Tekla.

« I am thrilled that what started from a few chance conversations has blossomed into this special project together. On a personal note, the bathing ritual is what I love and value most, so finally being able to work on a project which celebrates this, along with the synergies between our brands and the cultures we come from has been incredible” – Ryota Iwai, Designer at Auralee

Available from October 30, 2024, the Tekla x Auralee collection will be sold at Auralee Tokyo, Tekla Copenhagen, and select global retailers.
