Giving back to environmental causes as an organization taking responsibility for business decisions

Whether it is communities in need from other parts of the world, or those around the original country of the brand, supporting them through fashion ensures social responsibility can be merged in the products bought

The 1950s Silk Maps are an increasingly rare artefact that has become an iconic part of the brand, forming an evolving range of luxurious womenswear and accessory pieces. Originally given to Royal Air Force crewmen in WW2 and beyond into the Cold War period of the 1950s, they helped individuals find a route out of enemy territory.⁠

Upcycling, also known as creative reuse, is the process of transforming by-products, waste materials, useless, or unwanted products into new materials or products of better quality and environmental value. 

Upcycling artists are inspired by the textile waste they see, which is almost an unlimited resource at this point. They create with the intention to use what is already here. This process is important in the circular fashion movement, because it makes use of discarded textiles, giving these materials second lives. 

Because discarded textiles are not typically sheets of fabric, but rather articles of discarded clothing, a lot of creativity is required to transform materials into new fashionable pieces. This challenge is exciting for upcycling artists, as they are driven and inspired to create with what is in front of them and often don’t have much to lose in the process, since discarded materials are readily available and cheap. Because of this, upcycled clothing is often unique as each piece has been thoughtfully crafted into a new garment.

This product is made by creatively upcycling materials that would otherwise go to waste. This makes better use of resources like deadstock fabrics: leftovers from big production that are saved by re-using them.
