Commitments

We are committed to working closely with our supply chain partners who see to it that everyone involved in the making of our products is paid a fair wage, working at a sustainable pace for work-life balance, and doing what they love. Our commitment to the people we work with goes hand in hand with our adherence to environmentally sustainable practices and materials. By producing fewer, but higher quality garments with seasonless appeal, we hope to inspire and enable you to consume more consciously—wearing and enjoying our pieces for years to come.

Recognition

We respect and acknowledge the rich history and cultural traditions of the makers and their craft, and we are dedicated to preserving and celebrating their stories and time-honored techniques. We aim to create a global design community through this intercultural dialogue and collaboration, meaningfully connected across continents through a mutual love of exceptional craft.

Transparency

We believe in ethical sourcing and manufacturing, where we maintain a close, transparent relationship with the people making our products. All of our sewing is done in a worker-owned factory, which we travel to when developing our products and selecting fabrics. We collaborate with artisans who are given the opportunity to work from home to maintain familial bonds. We also work with an NGO in the Kachchh (Kutch) region of India dedicated to facilitating connections between artisans and designers worldwide and enabling new audiences to discover their craftsmanship. Our bond with our production partners extends beyond manufacturing—we are family.

Sustainability

Our entire design process is committed to environmentally sustainable practices, and we’re continuously looking for ways to improve. These are the current manufacturing processes we abide by:


  • We use responsibly sourced fabrics, including water-efficient, organically grown/processed cotton, FSC-certified viscose, eco-friendly silk and silk/cotton blends, and stock fabrics.
  • We use scrap fabrics to make small accessory items, designs that require patching of materials, and for some interior detailing on garments and accessories.
  • Our dyes are either natural or azo-free and non-toxic.
  • We use recycled wood, mirror, and glass for the majority of our embellishments.
  • Our shipping packaging and hangtags are made from recycled paper; we also print the hangtags using soy-based inks.
  • Our garment protection bags are composed of recycled plastic poly. Eventually, we aim to move to 100% compostable garment protection bags once we can meet the minimum order required.
