BASICS LOOKBOOK

WEARING: Melissa Araujo BASICS, JBrand Jeans, Polysemy Bracelets & Alexander Wang Kori Boots.

As most of you know earlier this month we launched our new collection: BASICS. It features seven tops for everyday life; the material is bamboo jersey for the outmost comfort and the pieces are all handmade in Canada. We choose to be conscious of where our product is made, not just where it is designed. We want people to understand where their clothes are produced and why it matters.

Have you heard of an organization called Fashion Revolution? Fashion revolution is a global coalition of designers, business leaders and writers calling for a reform in the fashion production and supply chain. They are asking consumers, designers and brands to ask a simple question "Who Made My Clothes? Check out their site to find out more and have look at our sustainable designs here.

  11. That is a perfect question to ask. I've noted this topic swirling about, especially with BIGGER brands. It's an important question to ask and for us consumers to understand where and why pieces are the way they are. I love how much thought you've placed in your clothing. Not just with their designs but where you source them and with what they're made. I wish every designer took that conscious route. Keep up the amazing work M!
