Conscious Decision-Making Rooted in Sustainability: We've been reflecting a lot on the challenges of starting and running a sustainable women's clothing brand. It's crucial for us to make conscious decisions that align with ethical and slow fashion principles, ensuring that every choice reflects our commitment to do the best we can with our current resources and knowledge.
Customer-Centric Production for Waste Reduction: Our approach revolves around customer-driven production to minimize unnecessary waste. By enabling our customers to vote on which garments enter production, we eliminate the guesswork in selling fashion items. Traditional fashion practices often result in excessive waste due to the production of garments that never find buyers, leading to millions ending up in landfills. We firmly believe that customers express their preferences through their purchases. This distinctive aspect of our business ensures that we produce only the garments with a genuine demand from our customers, aligning with our commitment to sustainability.
Brand Power and Ethical Choices: It's disheartening to see many brands prioritize profit over ethical and sustainable choices. For us and our small company, we're committed to making decisions that align with our values, even if it means incurring higher costs. It's about more than just the bottom line; it's about doing what is right and what aligns with our conscience.
Focus on Natural Fibers and Sustainable Practices: Our commitment extends to the materials we use. We aim to prioritize natural fibers, especially cotton, citing the environmental benefits they offer over synthetic counterparts. Additionally, we're exploring ways to minimize the use of harmful chemicals in garment production and considering the possibility of creating undyed garments to reduce our environmental impact.
Customer Reviews
Beautiful, well designed dress! I find myself reaching for it daily. It’s a dress that makes me feel confident. The attention to detail and fit is impeccable.
I will say, I was leery about purchasing this dress at first because of the fabric. I’ve never had much success with rayon lasting or not shrinking. But if it weren’t for the tag on this dress I wouldn’t have guessed it was rayon; it has a really nice quality cotton feel to it and has held up wonderfully.
pros: flattering fit, adjustable waist, great for pear shape, neutral colors, works for all seasons, sleeves can be work poofy or flat, breathable
cons: the ties around arms can be annoying bc they tickle your arm when they come loose
The amount of intention and care that went into this garment was obvious from the moment I opened the parcel. The quality is impeccable; the dress is well sewn and the fabric is a good weight. It flows very nicely, and while the dress looks graceful, it does not feel overly delicate. I am confident that with proper care it will last years (which is good because I think it to be my new favorite even without pockets!). The coverage is great and I am not worried about adjusting anything through the day. I am 5’0” and I ordered size XS. It is a perfect fit, and very flattering! The dress wears like a maxi on me. I highly recommend visiting the fitting guide here on the Atelette site for finding your measurements. It was so helpful and led me to make the right selection (I will list my measurements below to give you further room to compare). Last to say, the color and pattern make it feel all the more feminine and romantic! I am thrilled to add Florenzia to my wardrobe!
Bust: 33.5”
Waist: 27”
Hip: 36.5”
