Conscious Design

Our design philosophy centres around quality garments with longevity in mind. Every piece is consciously designed, made to last and has the versatility to be worn season to season. Our clothing is honestly priced to factor in responsible materials, ethical Australian made production and quality. ELLEE THE LABEL was conceptualized on the basis to be a part of the shift that needed to take place in the fashion industry to reduce the negative impact on people and planet.

Responsible Materials

All ELLEE THE LABEL pieces are crafted with responsible materials that have a reduced impact on planet and people (including sewn in tags). Material consideration is a large part of our design process and we are continuously researching and sourcing the best commercially available, responsible materials to incorporate into our designs.

Limit Environmental Impact

We constantly research and question how we can reduce our impact on the planet. All packaging is recyclable, compostable or reusable, including garment swing tags. There are some unavoidable freight carbon emissions that are in the nature of sending products to consumers, we will continue to investigate how different freight companies may reduce emissions in the future. We are also working towards the goal of a carbon neutral certification in the future.
