What is t7berlin?
t7berlin is a knitwear label from Berlin. It was founded in November 2019, shortly before the Covid-19 pandemic, by Larisa Pitkevich, a trained textile business engineer who had long planned to start her own brand. In 2023 the company was featured in connection with the Gründer.de Wachstumsstark award.
Products and positioning
The label specialises in seamless 3D knitting, a process that produces garments without seams and allows complex shapes and patterns that follow the body closely. The collection includes:
- Pullovers and cardigans
- Knitted trousers
- Dresses
t7berlin launched with 19 products and had grown to 83 pieces for women and men by early 2023, with children's styles in development. The brand works with fine natural yarns, including merino wool, and positions itself against garments made from polyester.
Production and retail
Production is placed with small manufacturers in the European Union, selected for sustainable practices and quality. The brand runs its own shop in Berlin, and Berlin trade and city press have listed it among local labels to watch.
Why it matters
t7berlin is an example of a small European label building its product proposition around a production technology, seamless knitting, rather than around trend-led collections.
