Black Lives Matter


It is impossible to have a conversation about sustainable fashion without discussing race. After all, much of the fashion industry's extremely unsustainable business model is only made possible by exploiting the earth and disenfranchised communities of garment workers, many of whom are BIPOC. So if we as a company and as people want to address human rights issues in the fashion industry, we must also speak up for Black rights in America. If we want do better for garment workers, we must also show up for the Black community and make sure that #GeorgeFloyd, #AhmaudArbery, #BreonnaTaylor, #RegisKorchinskiPaquet and #DreasjonReed do not become “just a statistic”.

From June 1st to 7th, we will be contributing 20% of proceeds to the BLM Fund and the Community Justice Exchange’s National Bail Fund Network (we will be splitting the proceeds equally between the funds).

We will also not be posting any original content on social media this week in solidarity with #amplifymelanatedvoices, which was created to amplify and center marginalized voices.

If you have the ability to donate or want to sign petitions (even if you’re not American), please check out blacklivesmatters.carrd.co.
