Our commitment

Being environmentally, ethically and socially responsible is woven into the fabric of our brand. We believe in the value of conscious fashion.

Being conscious means thinking carefully about the impact of our products on our planet, its resources and its people.

As a member of the Walpole Foundation and a luxury British brand, it is our responsibility to contribute to the preservation of our earth’s natural beauty. We strive for sustainable practices and the use of natural, bio-degradable materials to minimise our impact on the environment as well as conserving energy where possible and making products that stand the test of time.
