INGRID STARNES MAKE ELEMENTS

There is always more we can do to know our impact. Here are some of the steps we took with this garment.

MADE IN NEW ZEALAND, BEAUTIFULLY

All our clothing is made in New Zealand, meaning all workers have the same rights, holidays and protections as the people buying the clothes. Each garment can have up to ten local suppliers helping get it made - expert button-holers, pressers, cutters, graders, machinists, and embroiderers are all involved as required. This allows us to deliver the highest quality in the best way we can.

PRINTED/DYED IN NEW ZEALAND

We printed/dyed this fabric locally, at a factory that disposes of water and dye to New Zealand environmental protection standards, and that looks after worker welfare in ways we all expect. There is always a human or environmental cost associated with cheaper alternatives.  

EXCLUSIVE PRINT

This print was designed by us and made in New Zealand. Only a limited run of this fabric was made.
