Our Standards
With an incredibly convoluted supply chain, it's no surprise that fashion companies have no idea who makes their own clothes. This is why we are committed to ensuring that our customers always know how their clothes were made through our Standards, which are shown on every product.
handmade
With an emphasis on high quality workmsmanship, handmade pieces foster an appreciation for artistry and craft, all the while illuminating the relationship between the garments we wear and the people who have created them.

SHOP
artisan
Handmade garments and goods created by artisans from countries around the world help preserve ancient traditions and cultures while creating sustainable and beneficial relationships.

SHOP
eco-friendly
Eco-friendly garments and goods are produced with the earth in mind, employing low impact dyes and natural textiles like modal, tencel, hemp and soy.

SHOP
zero waste
Zero waste garments are created in a way to maximize all resources (like creating specific patterns or reusing water) without producing any waste.

SHOP
Vegan
Vegan goods are created without the use of any animal, animal byproducts, or animal testing.

SHOP
organic
Organic fabrics are grown without the use of hazardous chemical pesticides, genetic modification, and are generally a more sustainable farming practice than their non-organic counterparts.

SHOP
fair trade
Fair trade jobs create sustainable employment opportunities that have the potential to help people in the world's most marginalized communities escape poverty while promoting sustainability.

SHOP
canada
With globalization, local fashion manufacturers in both the U.S. and Canada are suffering as fashion companies move their production off-shore to cut costs. And while this may seem optimal, there are many downsides to off-shore production, such as an increased carbon footprint from international shipping.

SHOP
recycled
Recycled, repurposed or dead stock fabrics are essentially the extra or waste products (mostly of larger fashion houses). By using these fabrics and keeping them out of landfills, our labels create unique limited edition pieces.

Vintage is the antithesis of disposable fashion. Rewearing old or secondhand clothing displaces the need to create new ones, saving energy and the earth from the hulking environmental impacts of clothing manufacturing. Buying pre-worn clothing also saves them from ending up in landfills or flooding markets in third world countries. What's not to love?
This is why we have chosen to curate our own vintage picks, so that sustainable fashion can be accessible to everyone.
