Unfortunately, honesty and transparency are not a given in the supply chain of many fashion companies. The complexity of many small, independent suppliers usually makes it impossible to control working conditions and regulate standards uniformly.
But it doesn't have to work that way! We select our companies personally and maintain close, friendly contact with them. The most important thing is that our production rooms may sometimes look chaotic, but all employees enjoy going to work. Here they are safe and are paid fairly. Because only together can we change the fashion industry for the better. Find out more about where and how we work here.
