cocon.commerz PRIVATSACHEN has been in the fashion business for more than 20 years. Over the past two decades the company has evolved to become a respected manufacturer of high-quality womenswear and accessories sold through specialised retailers. The success of designer Connyie Rethman and her brother Rado Rethmann, a business management expert, is based on their daring decision to apply a completely new business concept: onesize garments made of hand-dyed natural fabrics - delivered to the retailer within four weeks. What may seem fairly normal by today's standards, was revolutionary in the mid-80s. cocon.commerz was one of the pioneers who cultivated this specific niche.
