Why A Sustainable Supply Chain Matters
Share
Being one of the world's first extra petite fashion brands is not enough. For us, we share a responsibility to get things done right.
Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a commitment. From the raw materials we source to the way our garments reach you, every link in our supply chain plays a role in reducing our impact on the planet. Fast fashion thrives on cut corners, but we take the opposite approach, working only with suppliers who share our values of ethical production, environmental responsibility, and transparency.

That’s why we partner with SEDEX-approved suppliers. SEDEX (Supplier Ethical Data Exchange) is one of the world’s leading ethical trade organisations, ensuring that factories operate under fair working conditions, use responsible sourcing practices, and meet strict environmental standards. This means workers are treated fairly, paid properly, and work in safe environments—something that should be standard, but too often isn’t.
We also take this personally. We spend time on the ground with our suppliers in Turkey, seeing first-hand that the highest standards are being met. It’s not just about ticking boxes—it’s about building relationships and knowing exactly how our garments are made.

Sustainability isn’t just about materials; it’s about people, processes, and principles. And as we work to open the doors to extra petite fashion in British retail, we want to do it the right way—with integrity, responsibility, and a supply chain we can stand behind.
Because when you wear one of our pieces, you’re not just wearing quality craftsmanship—you’re wearing something that’s been made responsibly, from start to finish.
