Sustainability
There is a story behind every garment about how and where it was created. A lot of times clothing has a long history even before it arrives in your closet: telling a tale of international shipping and cheap labor and fabrics.
Things should and can be different. We want to tell a story about honest slow fashion that is made in a way all clothing should be made: with social and sustainable responsibility.
With care for the world, we are exploring the possibilities of sustainability in fabrics and the way we produce. We do that in many ways:
Atelier
- Sustainable Fabric sourcing
- Local manufacturing
- Social impact and local jobs
- Reduce waste and co2
- Tailoring, made to order & repairs
Design
- High quality fabrics
- Style beyond trends (Capsule wardrobe)
- Versatile pieces
Sustainable fabric sourcing
The fabrics we use are either biological textiles, with natural colouring or designer deadstock which are left over fabrics from big companies that are usually burned or destroyed.
Sustainable fabrics we use:
- Organic Cotton OEKO-Tex certified
- Tencel
- Vegan Silk / Cupro for our Vegan Silk line
- Deadstock from selected stores
- Econyl for our swimwear
- Only natural dyed fabrics
Local manufacturing in our atelier
By producing locally in our own Atelier in the Netherlands and working with as much local suppliers as possible, we try to contribute to reducing CO2-emissions.
More about fabric sourcing and local manufacturing.
Social impact and jobs
Our clothing is made by hand by craftsmen and women who are challenged in the regular job market. We provide them with job opportunities and they provide us with the possibility to create all our apparel close to home. Meet our team.
Style beyond trends
We believe the key to slow fashion is owning quality versatile pieces. By buying better, and fewer, things, you can contribute to solving the fashion industries environmental challenges while still looking confident and sexy.
Perfect to create or add to your Capsule wardrobe.

Reduce waste and carbon neutral shipping
We wrap our garments in recycled material, also encouraging the end consumer to recycle the waste material again. we ship our items with waste based products made from cornstarch. encouraging the end consumer to compost the mailer as it is biodegradable.
We do our best to minimize our carbon footprint as much as possible, striving to become 100% carbon-neutral. Besides using only biodegradable recycled materials of our packaging we compensate carbon emissions.
