Promoting Fair Labour Practices
By purchasing from ethical clothing brands, you can play a role in promoting fair labour practices. Ethical clothing businesses prioritise the well-being and fair treatment of their workers, ensuring safe working conditions, fair wages, and reasonable working hours. The Australian Labour Government are investing 6 million dollars to promote a more equitable and just fashion industry.
At Thea, that’s exactly what has been practised since its inception. Our range of women’s nightdresses is all lovingly crafted in the homes of seamstresses, tailors, and style cutters, who maintain a healthy life balance and receive a living wage!
Although Covid-19 gave us buzzwords like ‘working from home’ or ‘virtual work’ etc., but for Thea workers, it’s not a new concept. The workers who are involved in the creation of these amazing garments have been working from home from the very beginning for 30+ years. In between looking after their household affairs, dropping kids to schools, or looking after an ailing parent, they work on the sewing machines. They produce these beautiful nighties at home.
It’s their full-time job, but they do it whenever they have the time, keeping up with the deadlines, but no 9 to 5 pressure. While we have expanded into an international brand, it has maintained its ethical ways and will continue supporting and nurturing each and every member of the team. When you choose to support these brands, you contribute to creating a more equitable and just fashion industry.
Protecting Workers’ Rights
Ethical clothing is often produced by brands that value the rights of their workers. They prioritise fair trade principles and ensure that workers are not subjected to exploitative practices such as child labour, forced labour, or unsafe working environments.
We guarantee that both our nightwear brands are made in an environment where workers are treated fairly and respectfully, following the respective country’s labour laws. By buying from ethical brands, you help protect the rights and dignity of the individuals who make the garments.
Environmental Sustainability
Ethical nightwear brands also prioritise sustainability in their production processes. They aim to minimise their environmental footprint by using organic or sustainable materials, reducing waste, and implementing eco-friendly manufacturing practices.
All our nightwear is made of a cotton, wool and silk blend deriving from plants, sheep and moths. Bonsoir of London is making sure all their products are entirely biodegradable, except for buttons and some polyester stitching. Similarly, all the cotton nightwear produced for our brand is biodegradable as well.
At Thea, nothing goes to waste; the leftover piece after a style is cut are used to make pockets, collars, handkerchiefs, pouches, and masks. By choosing to wear our ethical clothing, you contribute to the preservation of the environment and the reduction of harmful impacts on our planet.
Supporting Local Communities
Many ethical clothing brands focus on supporting local communities, particularly artisans and craftspeople. They collaborate with local artisans, ensuring the preservation of traditional craftsmanship and cultural heritage. By purchasing their products, you support these communities and help sustain their unique skills and livelihoods.
High-Quality and Long-Lasting
Ethical clothing designs are typically crafted with great care and attention to detail. They prioritise quality over mass production, ensuring that each piece is made to last. By investing in ethical night dresses, you can enjoy garments that are not only beautiful but also durable and long-lasting. This reduces the need for frequent replacements and contributes to a more sustainable and mindful consumption pattern. Each piece of the nightwear we offer is hand cut and made individually by sewing machines and not mass-produced.
Conscious Consumerism
Our ethical clothing range aligns with the principles of conscious consumerism. It encourages you to be mindful of the impact of your purchases on people and the planet. By considering the sustainable practices of the brands you support, you contribute to creating a demand for more responsible and environmentally conscious fashion choices.
Women’s Nighties That Make a Positive Environmental Impact on the World
When purchasing night dresses for women, it’s essential to choose the ethical option. By supporting brands that uphold fair labour practices, protect workers’ rights, prioritise environmental sustainability, and contribute to local communities, you can make a positive impact on the fashion industry.
Investing in ethical clothing brands like ours allows you to enjoy high-quality, long-lasting garments while promoting a more sustainable and ethical approach to fashion. Together, let’s choose to support brands that align with our values and help create a brighter future for the fashion industry and the world as a whole.
