Our Journey Towards Conscious Fashion
We believe in a conscious and durable fashion, in high quality products made from a short circuit in an ethical way.
We believe that we can give back to the planet and that we can all contribute at our own scale, starting by buying better and more purposefully.
We believe it is by the choices we make that we express our individuality.

Other Initiatives
BUSINESS MODEL
Our whole business model is based on wholesale as opposed to dropshipping which is used in most of our competitors' marketplaces:
By taking the risk of purchasing bulk quantities from our suppliers (instead of transporting goods at each customer order), we dramatically reduce our environmental impact by limiting the number of flights involved in the supply chain.
We are also able to provide better service by having the stocks close to your doorstep!

PACKAGING
To fulfill our transportation needs while being conscious of our planet's resources, we ensure all of our packaging is recyclable and use paper or recycled polyester for our warehouse packaging.
CARE
Because products tend to last longer when we take good care of them, our vision is to encourage a slow consumption mode where the norm is to buy better quality products and maintain them over time rather than replacing them after a few uses. Knowing how to clean a specific leather or gently wash and iron is key to make our belongings last longer. Follow our easy steps, catered to each product.
FIGHT AGAINST MICROFIBERS
Every time we do laundry, our clothes shed tiny, unseen microfibers (including plastic), which go down the drains of our washing machines and into our waterways - and ultimately into our oceans.
To prevent that, we recommend the use of the Cora Ball: a new kind of laundry ball which collects our microfibers into fuzz we can see, so we can dispose of microfibers in the right way. At the same time, it helps PREVENT microfibers from breaking off your clothes, reducing the total amount of microfibers produced and therefore protecting your clothes.
