Emergency Room | Made in Lebanon
Upcycled fashion born from Beirut’s resilience.
About Emergency Room
Emergency Room is a Lebanese fashion label founded in Beirut by designer Eric Mathieu Ritter. The brand is built entirely around upcycling: it transforms discarded garments, deadstock and salvaged materials into new, one-of-a-kind pieces, positioning itself as a deliberate alternative to fast fashion. The name itself nods to the sense of urgency around both Lebanon’s crises and the environmental cost of the fashion industry.
The label has become a symbol of Beirut’s creative resilience, producing bold, statement clothing that reflects the complexity of life in Lebanon while championing circular design. Emergency Room has been recognised on regional platforms including Fashion Trust Arabia and showcased at Dubai Fashion Week, and its founder has been named among the Middle East’s fashion innovators.
