New press in Departures : 10 of the World's Top Ethical Fashion Brands

  • Kate Wilson
We are over the moon to be featured in Departures 10 of the World's Top Ethical Fashion Brands
Such an honour to be mentioned alongside stunning, creative brands that are making a difference. A huge shout out to Mola Sasa, Veja, Tio y Tia, Matter, Nisolo, Vrai & Oro, Anuk, Mohinders and Maria Cornejo.
As consumers we have more power than we think. There is so much heart and so much drive in us all to make the world a sustainable place and to celebrate the natural beauty that was gifted to us. By picking brands that give back and are ecologically responsible we can celebrate fashion and creativity whilst safe guarding our heritage. It's such an exciting time to be an ethical brand and it's journalists like Michaela Trimble and magazines like Departures, sharing our stories that will enable us to reach our full potential.
Designed by Kate Wilson near the banks of eastern Zambia’s Luangwa River, each Mulberry Mongoose necklace, bracelet, and earring set are produced by a collective of local women. Made from local materials, like black-and-white guinea fowl feathers and repurposed snare wire–illegally used by poachers to trap animals like leopard and lion for the black-market bushmeat trade, a portion of profits from each piece sold supports the Zambian Carnivore Programme and Conservation South Luangwa. (These two organizations working diligently to remove snare wire and conserve species in the area.)
