Acne Studios is a Stockholm-based fashion house founded in 1996 by Jonny Johansson as part of a multidisciplinary creative collective. Originally standing for "Ambition to Create Novel Expressions," the brand began encompassing film, advertising, and art departments. The fashion journey started in 1997 when Johansson created 100 pairs of raw denim jeans with distinctive red stitching, giving them away to friends and family. This gesture caught the attention of major publications like Vogue Paris and Wallpaper, launching the brand's fashion trajectory. In 2006, Acne Studios became an independent fashion house. Under Johansson's creative direction, the brand has evolved into a globally recognized name known for its Swedish modernist aesthetic, innovative approach to traditional garments, and "maximalist minimalism" philosophy. With flagship stores in major fashion capitals and a reputation for clean lines, unexpected proportions, and eclectic use of materials, Acne Studios has established itself as a leader in contemporary fashion while maintaining its rebellious, artistic edge.
