we care. nous nous soucions.

Sustainability is a central part of sororité. By combining our investment in eco-friendly product packaging with vintage, pre-loved, and reworked clothing, we are minimizing energy, waste, and water footprints.

OUR PACKAGING

  • Kraft Bubble mailers made from 100% recycled content

  • Cardstock made from 100% recycled content

  • Natural jute twine that is 100% biodegradable

  • Shopping bags that are 100% biodegradable

  • Reusable drawstring bags

  • Recyclable tissue paper made from both post-industrial and post-consumer recycled content

  • Polypropylene recyclable packaging for gifts with purchase & merch

PRE-LOVED AND VINTAGE CLOTHING

By wearing pre-loved and vintage clothing, you are reducing your personal carbon footprint. This occurs in two ways:

  1. You are reducing the amount of emissions and resources put into your wardrobe that impacts the environment

  2. You are providing used garments with a home, rather than contributing to the 10.5 million (and growing) tons of textiles discarded to landfills each year [1]

REWORKED JEWELRY

Sustainability and luxury are at the core of our brand — the charms on our necklaces, bracelets, rings, and earrings come from vintage and salvaged authentic designer garments and accessories. Our team reworks these pieces with high quality materials, minimizing waste and creating one-of-a-kind, luxurious pieces of jewelry in the process.

REUSABLE BAGS

The average American family uses almost 1,500 shopping bags a year, totaling to over 100 billion plastic bags across the country. [2]. Instead of single-use plastic shopping bags, we provide our clients with convenient, reusable, and eco-friendly totes and bags.

GIFT CARDS

All of our gift cards are digital and provided via e-mail, avoiding the use of gift cards made from plastic.

WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO

The packaging and fast fashion industries are some of the most polluting industries in the world. Knowledge is power, so here are a few statistics on the global impacts of fast fashion and product packaging:

  • Garment manufacturing causes about 20% of industrial water pollution [3]

  • It takes 2,700 liters of water to produce a single cotton shirt, which is enough water for one person to drink for 2.5 years [4]

  • 32% of the 78 million tons of plastic packaging produced annually is left to flow into our oceans [5]

  • Of the 14.68 million tons of plastic packaging generated in the United States in 2015, 68.6% of it was landfilled [6]
