The Spiritual Warrior story

The founder

Born in Serbia, raised in Valais and now living in Lausanne, Alma Gudzevic founded the Spiritual Warrior brand.

The Spiritual Warrior adventure began in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 when Alma Gudzevic, faced with the difficulty of finding a hoodie with a large hood online, decided to take matters into her own hands. With determination and perseverance, she ordered a sewing machine and created her first prototype by watching tutorials on YouTube. This handmade process marked the start of an eight-month journey, punctuated by the search for reliable suppliers and the creation of the first products.

Inspired by her passion for nature, hiking and yoga, Alma draws her inspiration from deep-rooted values of respect for the environment. Aware of the impact of the fashion industry on the planet, she has chosen the path of slow fashion, favouring materials that work with the earth rather than exploiting it.

The brand

During the Covid period, the world stood still, while nature came back to life. We all came face to face with ourselves. For some, this had no impact, but for others it was an opportunity to face up to that little voice inside us and question our way of life. We asked ourselves what really made us happy and what we needed to change to achieve this authentic happiness. When was the last time we had such an opportunity and the time we needed to come face to face with ourselves? For many, it was the beginning of a process of self-questioning and internal change. We all know that the battle against oneself is the most difficult of all. The Spiritual Warrior embodies this struggle, this path to our true happiness. 

The symbol

Each warrior wears armour that makes him strong and powerful. SW's clothes are marked with a symbol representing an arrow for combat and a sun for success. This symbolic armour gives us courage and strength to face the outside world, with the aim of calming our inner world.
