Righteous Fashion
Another scandinavian eco friendly fashion house. And I am so happy – I just keep finding more and more excellent options of super nice clothes produced with some good healthy ethics then buying at one of the huge chain stores that really could take their responsablity for the future of our kids a bit more seriously…
Righteous Fashion was started by Kajsa Cappelen Holst and Paula Kermfors some years back after having studied Human Rights Law in Sweden and realizing there is a lot to be done, especially in the huge industry of fashion! As they say: you dont need to comprise good style for the sake of ecological production – you can have them both!
They have chosen to work with organic textile manufacturers and farmers from UGANDA, NEPAL, INDIA and MAURITSIUS. They follow the fair trade principles: for example they support the equal rights principle at MAURITSIUS where 25 % of the workers are handicapped and they also re-invest money in projects to help women entrepreneurs in AFRICA and support sustainable farming.
All cottons are 100 % ecological and the wool cashmere yarns has been vegetable dyed. They are striving for a production with minimum impact on earth.
Below is some photos of there spring summer collection 2010: beatifull petrol blues, dove greys and natural tones in soft shapes and asemetric cuts. I want the petrol blue long tank top dress!!!
