Meet Kristina De Pizzol

Founder & Designer, Après

Born and raised between the crisp fjords of Norway and the alpine forests of Sweden, Kristina brings authentic Scandinavian heritage to every stitch.

Starting out as a maker and designer, APRÈS founder Kristina De Pizzol brings a thoughtful, hands-on approach to every piece. Raised by her Norwegian mother, Kristina is inspired by her Scandinavian heritage. From an early age, she was captivated by the minimalist design, enduring quality, and hygge warmth woven into Nordic traditions. In 2023, Kristina launched APRÈS to blend her love for these timeless values with modern winter wear—crafting hats, scarves, and gloves that embody clean lines, sustainable materials, and that unmistakable cozy feel.

Every piece in the APRÈS collection reflects Kristina’s Nordic roots—blending natural fibers with soft neutrals, designed for fireside moments, snowy adventures, and stylish everyday warmth.
