RESPONSIBILITY
In a time when terms like "sustainable," "eco-friendly," and "environmentally conscious" are often misused or lack substance, I’m mindful of the labels I associate with my designs. When I choose to use the term "sustainable," it reflects my genuine commitment to the environment and the principles I stand by.
For me, sustainability goes hand in hand with transparency, and I’m proud to share the steps I take to ensure my designs uphold this standard.
I. VALUES
I am passionate about making a meaningful impact by upcycling old fabrics and garments, transforming them into new, thoughtfully designed pieces.
While many associate upcycled fashion with outdated or unprofessional styles, I am dedicated to changing that perception. My goal is not only to contribute to a more sustainable fashion industry but also to shift how we value and perceive fashion itself. Fashion was once celebrated for its artistry and craftsmanship, yet that appreciation has diminished over time. With each of my designs, I aim to bring that lost value back—crafting pieces with intricate detail and purpose, so every garment tells a story.
II. MATERIALITY
I’m proud to say that every garment I create is made from 100% recycled materials, with 90% of the haberdashery also sourced from recycled sources.
By collaborating with local brands, charity organizations, second-hand stores, and fabric remnant suppliers, I personally curate all the materials used in my designs and orders. I am committed to using only the highest-quality materials and processes, ensuring that every piece is crafted to the utmost standard. Through this approach, my goal is to foster positive change within the fashion industry while also supporting and uplifting my local communities.
III. PACKAGING
I have a strict NO plastic rule with all my packaging!
All orders are packed in recycled, biodegradable tissue paper and shipped in compostable mailers.
All orders are shipped from Newport, Sydney using carbon neutral couriers, AUSpost or Sendle.
