We make clothes with a purpose. Our purpose is to motivate rethinking in the textile industry in staying close to ourselves and acting according to our core values.
We believe in making a change in building up our own clothing brand and to break the Brules on the way. Brules are bullsh*t rules that are e.g. passed on from generation to generation. To name an example, a typical Brule is to think that you need to have a certain education to get that specific job to be successful. A Brule is that business is in the first instance about making money, not for us. We define a successful business as a business, which achieves its purpose.
We are a group of friends with different backgrounds and skills and connect through our purpose and core values. This alignment makes our drive to make this world a bit of a better place strong and fun. We love what we do and hope you do too.
To produce a piece of clothing a lot is needed as human labor as well as natural resources and even chemicals. Some of us are familiar with the issues of the low cost production of clothes or working conditions as well as the harm, which is done to our environment due to micro-waste, high volumes of water used etc.. Most margins in the textile industry are really high and there is a lot of price pressure and competition. We don't believe in cost-driven approaches but more in making a real contribution.
We decided to contribute to our society in showing that it can be done differently. We decided on producing clothes out of recycled cotton and produced sustainable as well as organically. We don't believe in hierarchies but do believe in equality. We embrace individual talents and skills and make sure everybody can live their passion and be happy. We have one life and we want to get the most out of it.
Get on the journey with us! We don't know where it goes but we believe in EMMA, in us and intuition-based decisions!
