SUSTAINABLE FASHION<br />
The Ethical Silk Company is a luxury<br />
brand that designs and produces Ahimsa<br />
silk bedding, loungewear and accessories.<br />
Founded in 2009, every fair-trade item is made from an<br />
eco-friendly silk production process where no silkworms are<br />
harmed, resulting in a beautifully rich silk which, because of the<br />
way it’s produced, is softer than regular silk.<br />
The brand was born and built by Eva Power to fuse her love of<br />
beautiful silk products and ethical practices. She grew up with a<br />
deep appreciation for silk from her mother and aunt and sought<br />
to create a sustainable solution to designing timeless products<br />
that are made from natural silk.<br />
The Ethical Silk Company takes great care in both the quality and<br />
integrity of each item. The collections are constructed with a<br />
manufacturing partner in Jaipur, India that aligns with the brand<br />
by using transparent, vertical supply chain with fair labor. Each<br />
piece is tailored and printed by hand at a Fairtrade US certified<br />
tailoring unit in Jaipur. The printed items are block printed onto<br />
the fabric by hand, one at a time with carved teak wood that<br />
has been dipped in dye. Dyes used are low impact, AZO free<br />
dyes. All water used is treated and recycled.<br />
Current collections include silk pillowcases, crib sheets, loungewear,<br />
robes, scarves and wraps. Prices range from $50- $220 and all<br />
products are available on<br />
www.theethicalsilkcompany.<br />
com for shipping worldwide.<br />
5% of all profits go towards<br />
the Jeevan Jyothi AIDS Centre<br />
in India and 5% of profits go<br />
to Focus Ireland, a charity<br />
that works to prevent people<br />
from becoming, remaining or<br />
returning to homelessness.<br />
