CONSCIOUS
With the rise of 'fast fashion', slow fashion is the only way to go
"Americans alone produced 15.1 million tons of textile waste in 2013, and around 85 percent of that ended up in landfills"
-- Environmental Protection Agency
"On average each American throws away roughly 70 pounds of clothing and other textiles per year.
That's equivalent in weight to more than 200 men’s T-shirts. "
-- Huffington Post
1TRTL is hand sewn with love, one piece at at time, in New York City. What the world needs now is love, sweet love. Now, more than ever.
COMFY
Because clothes touch you, the finest soft fabrics are midfully selected for you
Touch is important. I feel there must be a tribe of women who share my perspective. If you understand, 1TRTL is made for you. Welcome.
Clothes also have a team of folks who created them for you. I focus on collaborating with people whose energies are in allignment with my mission statement. Collaboration is a super important aspect of 1trtl, without it, 1trtl wouldn't exhist.
CONVERTIBLE
Leave a smaller footprint - and closet
Having convertible pieces allows more room for individual options, without taking up more closet space.
And, whether we are traveling through the concrete jungle or taking a trip to Costa Rica, having comfy and convertible clothes are valuable.
