Slow Fashion
We believe fashion should never be cheap, disposable, anonymous, or made in poor conditions.That's why we take a holistic approach to the design and production of our goods. Through this holistic approach, we can maintain a commitment to sustainable and ethical production and manufacturing processes.
Each of our products are made to order each time you purchase from us. This allows us to avoid waste created by overstock and cut down on the unnecessary use of fossil fuels to ship our products from a distributor, to a warehouse, and finally over to you.We believe our customers care about the environment as much as we do and respect the 3 to 6 week window it requires to print, cut, sew, and ship our products.
Each of our pieces are designed by an artist in collaboration with Maison Synesthésie. The artist receives residuals in perpetuity and is given an outlet to expand on a global scale. Every time you purchase from us, you supports a community of deserving artist as well.
Our Manifesto
We believe in a future where the historically marginalized are the rule and not the exception.
We believe we can stand in the glory of the achievements of our ancestors while shaping a new world.
We believe black and brown bodies, women, allies and members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and those with disabilities are not marketing tools or ad campaign fodder but real, breathing people and a symbol of strength and resilience.
We believe our existence; our survival through all we have suffered is a revolutionary statement.
We believe each time we choose to buy into brands that support us a whole we speak loudly with our money.
We believe fashion can be used as a tool; as a marker to say we also belong in traditionally privileged spaces.
We believe clothes do so much more than cover our bodies. By choosing garments that have a message and make a statement, we further our vision of ourselves in this great, wide world.
