Who we are

We are a natural clothing company that designs beautiful apparel, as pure in its creation as it is a pleasure to wear.

The principles we live by are the principles that guide the way we do business.  That may sound pretentious (we hope not!), but there is no simpler way to say that the authenticity of our heritage, our compassion and respect toward our planet and its people, the natural processes we employ in the creation of our clothing, are the essence of who we are.  

All of our pure cotton is 100% organic. All of our other fabrics are 20-55% organic. Our goal is to be 100% organic in everything we make.  Because we create apparel made of silk, linen, wool, cashmere. alpaca and mohair as well as other luxurious fabrics, the availability in organic is still limited. However, everything we make is pure and natural. Made by people whose human rights are respected, no matter where they live. We are very proud of what we have accomplished in the years since we began.  But as Heinz Hess, our founder, might have said: “You aren’t on the mountain top, until you finish the climb.”
