Organic Cotton

Soft, breathable, and kind to both skin and soil.
Our organic cotton is grown without harmful chemicals and processed with care to preserve its natural softness and strength. Perfect for lightweight blouses, chemises, and under layers.

Care Instructions:

  • Machine wash cold or warm with like colours.
  • Use gentle detergent; avoid fabric softeners.
  • Tumble dry on low or hang to dry to reduce wear.
  • Steam or iron on medium heat if needed.

Sustainability Note:
Organic cotton supports healthier ecosystems, safer working conditions, and longer-lasting garments.

Linen

Breathable, strong, and made from the flax plant.
Linen has been worn for centuries for its cool comfort, earthy texture, and timeless elegance. We use pre-washed or softened linen to ensure a gentle drape and comfortable feel from the very first wear.

Care Instructions:

  • Machine wash in cold or lukewarm water on a gentle cycle.
  • Use mild, biodegradable detergent. Avoid bleach.
  • Hang or lay flat to dry (linen dries quickly).
  • Iron or steam while slightly damp if you prefer a smoother finish, or embrace the natural creases for a lived-in look.
  • Store folded or hung to prevent deep wrinkles.

Sustainability Note:
Linen is one of the most eco-friendly textiles in the world. It is biodegradable, uses low water in production and is naturally moth-resistant.

Leather

Strong, supple, and full of character.
We source our leather carefully for quality and durability, using it for belts, corset panels, and accessories that age beautifully over time.

Care Instructions:

  • Wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth; avoid soaking.
  • Condition periodically with natural leather balm or oil to prevent dryness and cracking.
  • Keep away from prolonged heat, direct sunlight, and moisture.
  • Store in a cool, dry place - never in plastic.

Sustainability Note:
We use real leather for its longevity and natural biodegradability, choosing responsibly sourced hides to ensure ethical production.
