One Step Further

Bridal

Eco Bridal that can be reused and / or reworked is our current concentration
I have a strong appreciation for physically beautiful garments. I don't see very much of them in the landscape of (truly) eco fashion. It is a great challenge to make a business that is genuinely eco-friendly when it comes to fashion. Bridal is only one look, often custom fit and even custom designed for the individual, and fabrics are ordered to match a cut and often sourced from a place they would have been delivered to anyway. All of this naturally lowers the footprint of the garment in comparison to one that is mass produced, needs multiple fittings; with pieces of fabric removed and discarded, and would be shipped all over the planet. Adding in repurposed, vintage / antique, deadstock, and/or actual eco fabrics - especially if undyed or at least naturally dyed, and it is an especially small footprint. Add an extra step of designing and making the garment in such a way that it can be worn as a long term item, or reworked into a few different pieces, and you not only make the investment more sustainable for the consumer but the footprint more sustainable for our amazing planet. Just yesterday I stood in a bridal gallery gazing through the racks and there are SO many ways to express oneself through a garment. What an honor to facilitate that expression even more when it's on such  special and celebratory day. Finally, a wedding can be a stressful experience when it is ideally one of love and appreciation and sharing your bliss with your community My creative therapeutic training allows me to approach a bride where they are more and more with every new things I learn about us, our bodies, our emotions, hormones, relationships, minds, identities, and perspectives. I love approaching a bride holistically - as much as she prefers. It can start and stop at a dress. And it can also go more into a holistic approach to what we are creating for you through this process.
