GOALS

Our Road to Sustainability

To reach our goal of a sustainable future we will incorporate our knowledge, creativity and know-how. Transparency and honesty towards our customers is our number one priority in relation to sustainability.

We are on a journey to becoming more aware and conscious of a sustainable future. As a fashion brand, we therefore acknowledge our responsibilities in regards to sustainable fashion production. We realize that the road to sustainability can be challenging and time-consuming. Therefore, we try to achieve our sustainability goals step-by-step.

More Sustainable Products

We are aware of the current issues within the fashion industry concerning overproduction. That is why we only reproduce samples of our collection on-demand, to make sure there is no unnecessary stock of garments.

We do not want to comply with the fashion calendar as defined by the fast fashion industry and the pace in which they are releasing new collections.

Instead we invest our time and effort in finding creative ways in which we can reuse textiles to maximize its lifecycle. This way we minimize the amount of textile waste that harms the environment.

Creating Awareness

Creating awareness and educating our customers on sustainability is the first step on becoming more sustainable. Providing information about the origin of the fabrics and how to preserve their garments in order to enjoy it in the long term will help the customer to make a more sustainable fashion choice.

Sustainable Textiles

Our goal is to make our designs more sustainable by using materials that have a lower negative impact and guarantees a longer product lifecycle. We are actively searching for textiles that have an OEKO-TEX® standard. Eventually we want to produce garments that only consist of textiles with this standard and/or are made out of recycled textiles.

Local Partnerships

For the production of our garments we have partnered up with local suppliers of fabrics who are situated in the Netherlands. All garments are produced in-house, from the beginning to the final stage of the production process. This allows us to decrease our environmental footprint in terms of transportation and logistics. Furthermore, it enables us to control the working conditions of our artisans and tailors.

The Craftmanship

We value high quality products in order to expand the lifespan of our garments. To guarantee the quality of our garments, both our Couture and Ready-To-Wear collection are handmade by a team of experienced tailors with an eye for artistry, details and the perfect fit. This advocates for an ethical garment manufacturing process that respects the people who create our garments.
