empower the creative women around you
By Women studio is all about empowering creative women to enable them to live on their creativity. We truly believe that is one key to reach a more equal world but also to a more sustainable world. To support local women instead of large mass-production brands we not only protecting the environment but we also help women to run their own businesses and become more powerful in this world. Did you know that less than 1% of the worlds assets are owned by women? If By Women studio can do just a little bit to change that allocation, we see the point doing what we do. We hope you agree ❤️
this is us
Or more correctly; this is me.
My name is Sanna-My and I'm the woman behind By Women studio. I'm a coffee-loving feminist and environmentalist, living in Malmö together with my husband, Sebastian. I used to work with marketing and communication before I realized I needed to do something more meaningful with my life, and yes I know - that sounds a lot like a cliche. But a road trip all the way from California to New York City in 2017, was the point of no return. During this trip I met so many incredible and strong women who inspired me to the idea of doing something else. And this 'something else' turned out to be By Women studio. Said and done, when I got back home to Sweden I quit my full time and well paid job, invested all my savings, and in February 2018 my very own small shop in Malmö was opened. I really look forward to what this adventure will bring in the future. But most of all I'm so grateful for all the people who supports me and stands behind me in the fight for a more equal world where women are given more power and space.
Love,
Sanna-My Engen, founder & owner
our story
The idea to By Women studio came to me during a road trip all the way from California to New York City. I met so many incredible and strong women during this trip and I got so inspired and felt that I needed to bring that feeling with me back home to Sweden. Said and done, I quit my job within marketing and opened up By Women studio - a small physical shop in Malmö who six months later also became an online shop. With By Women studio I want to gather and empower all the creative women around us and inspire the consumer to shop small and unique rather than support mass production. I really hope you love the concept and the products as much as I do.
Love,
Sanna-My Engen, founder & owner
