Akris was founded in 1922 by Alice Kriemler-Schoch in St. Gallen as an apron atelier. Soon Alice was dressing the most stylish women in the region, using exclusively local fabrics, many of them embroidered. To this day, the Swiss label stands for high-quality fabrics, geometric cuts, and unique embroidery. Akris is available at Maison Gassmann in Zurich and in the online shop.
