Deux mains collaborate with a non-profit, REBUILD,<br />

in Haiti. One of REBUILD’s projects is working with<br />

refugees, providing them with training to produce<br />

upcycled soles from old tires. Deux Mains use the<br />

soles to make sandals in their local workshop.<br />

The relationship between REBUILD and deux mains<br />

is more than just supplier and customer. It is a true<br />

collaborative effort to bring a supply chain together<br />

than has positive impact as well as creating desirable<br />

products.<br />

High-end Luxury Designers x <strong>Brand</strong> x<br />

Social Enterprise x Celebrities<br />

SeeMe are masters of cross-industry collaboration. Their<br />

goal is to foster within the luxury industry a taste and love<br />

for fair trade production without compromising on the<br />

quality or the design of the products.<br />

They have collaborated with Karl Lagerfeld on a collection<br />

of hand-knitted collars and gloves; with Pucci, Mulberry,<br />

Aquazzura and more on designs for tote bags which were<br />

then made up by Socially made in Italy, a non-for-profit<br />

organisation providing work to women in jail; with<br />

Missoni who worked with them on dress linings<br />

hand-crafted in Turkey and many more besides.<br />
