"At Miksani we believe that fashion doesn't have to come
at a cost to those who make it. That's why all our garments are
manufactured in World Fair Trade Organisation (WFTO
– formerly IFAT) certified producers or those
working towards this.
Fair trade is a campaign to underline the unethical system of
world trade, ensuring that producers receive fair prices which
mirror the true costs of production. It helps improve working
conditions in factories, promotes fair wages and guarantees that
more of the money we spend on garments goes directly to the
person who has made it. Miksani garments are unique and often
hand woven, hand knitted and hand printed meaning that artisans
in small communities are supported and traditional skills are
kept alive. Miksani create stylish, luxury fashion whilst
employing socially responsible and ethical business
practices.
Our garments are manufactured to the highest standards in Nepal,
Peru and India and are produced using natural, sustainable
fabrics such as organic cotton and silk, banana, alpaca wool and
mohair wool. This ensures that our garments not only have minimum
negative impact on the environment and on the people who make
them but are also wonderfully luxurious to wear. Our organic
cotton is certified by the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS)
and also by Fairtrade Labelling Organisations International
(FLO)." -Miksani
