"Like you, we are concerned about the welfare of our
planet.
We often think about our children and wonder what problems they
will be faced with for generations to come. As creators - as
designers - as business owners - we have a responsibility to do
what we can to preserve our world, so we source locally whenever
possible, and we only use fabrics that are rapidly renewable and
pesticide-free.
Our collection features silks farmed from silk worms and mulberry
trees that are pesticide-free and silk yarn processed without
chemicals. Our wool comes from British Blue Faced Leicester and
Shetland sheep that are reared organically. We are also
introducing bamboo satin, a beautiful and luxurious fabric that
is kind to the environment and has antibacterial properties.
The garments are handcrafted in our studio or by small local
manufacturers and social enterprise units, giving something back
to the community. The dyes we use are free of metal, amine, and
azo compounds, and specialised dyeing is done in our studio.
Batch dyeing is sent to a local dyeing company. All promotional
materials are printed on FSC certified paper using vegetable
inks." -Elena Garcia
