Our Fabrics
Our Fabrics
Natural fibers and yarns are the foundation of each garment we produce. We remain committed to sourcing quality fabrics that not only wear well but have low environmental impacts. As we continue to grow and expand our categories, we aim to introduce new initiatives and keep you updated on how we remain connected to our mission of best practice and transparency.
Deadstock
By using deadstock fabric we are taking fabric that cannot be used for its original purpose, due to overproduction or canceled orders for example, and using it instead of other virgin materials.
This is a great way to ensure something that already exists is used before producing more fabric.

Linen
Linen is a natural fiber, which is derived from the stem of the flax plant. The production of linen involves low water consumption and no fertilizers or pesticides, making linen a renewable resource.

Cotton
Cotton is a natural fiber, which is derived from the boll or protective case around the seeds of the cotton plant. Compared to synthetic fibers, cotton has the advantage of being a completely natural product, making it biodegradable.
Being in our infancy and developing our first collection, we found that the minimums attached to organic cotton were too high and would result in over producing stock. We felt it was a better option to start with the use of conventional cotton for the limited numbers we wanted to create, with the goal to move completely to organic cotton as we grow.
Even though organic cotton is still not perfect, we believe it is a more environmentally friendly option and we aim to introduce GOTS cotton and BCI cotton initiatives wherever possible.

Excess fabric
In some circumstances, we have leftover fabric from the sampling process. This excess fabric is reused to create samples for any new designs in the making.
We work closely with our pattern makers and cutters to ensure the most economical layout is achieved when cutting bulk orders. Achieving as little waste as possible is always at the forefront of what we do. We are committed to minimising our contribution to landfill and will do what we can to repurpose any excess fabric.
