Production
For Righteous Fashion, quality is a guiding line. For us, high quality is delivered through the accuracy of fit as well as the choice of materials, and not the least through the history of the garments. Quality products can only be created when the people who work on them are treated well and fair.
Our entire chain of production is guided by high standards of fairness and environmental concern. We use the finest Organic and Fairtrade certified cotton from India, as well as soft cashmere wool from the goats grazing in the sloping fields of Nepal
The production unit, ranging from the cotton farm in India to the finished piece of garment in Mauritius , is certified through co-operation with IFAT and the working conditions are registered by FLO. In concrete terms this means for instance that workers are free to join federation of labor units and offered appropriate reasonable payments over the average living wage.
All cotton used in Righteous Fashion collections is one hundred percent organic, guaranteed by a Control Union World Group certification. Growing cotton organically means, for example selecting the most suitable non- genetically modified seed and using green manure instead of artificial fertilizers. With drip irrigation systems it is possible to save more than sixty percent of water and to improve the quality of the crop and limit the reproduction of harmful insects.
By treating the cashmere wool with vegetable dyes and by embellishing the clothes with handcrafted bone buttons, not only are impacts on the environment minimized but also are artisan skills embraced and encouraged.
