Values

     
From the inception of  La Sororité
sustainability and ethics were at its core. 
    

We break this down into two parts; one the ethics around the people and animals we work with and two, how we protect the planet while we create beautiful long lasting pieces.

Our workforce is made up of women from marginalised groups in Nepal and we endeavour to help these women become self-reliant individuals through educational programmes, good salaries and health programmes for them and their families.
  

 

From the inception of La Sororité sustainability and ethics were at its core. We break this down into two parts; one the ethics around the people and animals we work with and two, how we protect the planet while we create beautiful long lasting pieces. ‏‏‎Our workforce is made up of women from marginalised groups in Nepal and we endeavour to help these women become self-reliant individuals through educational programmes, good salaries and health programmes for them and their families.

The women we work with always come first for us, we ensure their artisan skills are celebrated by fair wages and a flexible, safe working environment. Most of the women who work for us have a family to provide for through this work, whether that be older parents or children. Female empowerment has a wide effect, reaching not only the families of the women we work with but the community as a whole. ‏‏‎We ensure all our packaging is biodegradable and we avoid all harmful chemicals in our processes. 

At La Sororité we care about the women who make our clothes as much as the women we make them for. 

The goats are raised in the Himalayas and are only ever hand-combed which is the traditional method to extract the longest fibres from the goats that have already naturally dropped due to the spring weather. As they are the longest fibres they make the most durable and soft jumpers. If you have any questions please do contact us at emma@lasororite.com or DM us on Instagram.
