Can you share a little more about your values?
Ethically Made: Our production is Ethical Clothing Australia accredited and we strive to maintain ethical work practices and material sourcing.
Locally Made: Our entire range is created in house.
Made to Order: All items from our website are made to order.
Minimal waste: We are made to order to reduce the amount of material waste produced by our label. We also save and integrate the majority of our fabric scraps for new and bespoke designs.
Sustainable: We strive to maintain closed looped practices through integrated recycled materials into our range. We also create pieces that are predominantly hand dyed, using both low impact fibre reactive as well as safely produced natural/plant based pigments.
Transparent: We are transparent about our materials, manufacturing base, and the principles and ethics behind our brand.
Vegan: We use only plant based and vegan materials. The founder / designer / maker of the label also personally follows a plant based lifestyle and has for the past 12 years.
We are made to order to reduce the amount of material waste produced by our label.
