Our goal is simple: To create pieces rooted in purposeful, ethical and intentional design; never at the expense of our planet or people, always with the sole intent of empowering. We believe in conscious consumption, respectful, professional relationships, sustainable design, manufacturing, and an up-front retail experience. We collaborate with like-minded companies, who comply with all human and environmental standards. Misha Vaidya is happy to support the Fashion Revolution #WhoMadeMyClothes

What’s beauty without brains, or intelligence without ambition? More importantly, what are we without our planet? We all understand the growing, and urgent need to protect our planet; our home. So what are we doing about it, how are we as a brand trying to make a difference? We believe that everything is connected, and that our actions directly impact ourselves, others and generations to come. We're happy to tell you what we do to reduce our footprint, value our ecosystem and protect our planet.

1. We are a slow fashion-centric brand. We produce small runs and focus on creating quality garments, thus increasing the longevity of our clothing, and decreasing our impact on the environment.

2. We work with local suppliers and manufacturers to lessen our carbon footprint. Working with fair trade certified companies and often small, women-owned organisations, enables us to really get to know those making our garments.

3. It’s a package deal! We use recyclable, re-usable envelopes and packaging products. Our eco-friendly hang tags and flyers are 100% biodegradable, 100% chlorine free, and are made with 100% recycled fibre; FSC certified and produced with wind power.

4. We are committed to creating garments as sustainable as they are beautiful. From responsible sourcing and saying no to chemical processes, to our use of dead-stock fabrics, and handmade efforts.

As the world returns to normal, we can’t go back to business-as-usual. Together, we can make a difference; there is only ONE PLANET EARTH.

Our skirt of the moment: the Kauai Skirt

Taken at the start of this year, New Year’s resolutions intact. We told ourselves that 2020 would be a year of manifestation: A promise to be positive; to visualise goals in an effort to better attract them, to work hard while maintaining laser sharp intention, and to start every day with conviction, imagination and courage • Though we, along with all of you, never imagined such a start to the decade, 2020 has in fact materialised some of those goals. We’ve had to be positive, and keep our heads up in a time of uncertainty and fear. We’ve had to work harder and shift gears to remain accessible and sensitive. We’ve had to be courageous and imaginative simply to keep ourselves sane. There’s strength in knowing that we weathered this storm together, not from the sidelines, but as a key player. More importantly, that we’ll continue. So for 2021, our resolution continues, extends and hopefully flourishes – not alone, but together. Happy New Year, all our love xx

Creativity is a gift. It’s openly available, but not always adequately assisted, hence that occasional (dreaded) feeling of creative fatigue. We’ve found that our antidote is collaboration. Through working with countless creative geniuses; bouncing ideas back and forth, sharing goals and sparking new light into the entrepreneurial sphere has allowed us to remain excited and inspired. For that we consider ourselves lucky. While 2020 has been a little different, we can’t wait to continue creating, sharing and collaborating. Thank you to all the beautiful people we’ve worked with, including the two artists behind this shot: @aesthetnik @jaclynsiu ♥️ As Einstein once said, “Creativity is contagious, pass it on.”

While our plans to explore faraway lands this year might have been foiled, our want to discover fresh perspectives hasn’t been. No one’s perfect and we all have plenty of room to grow, evolve and ultimately deepen our goals and illuminate our values • My lesson this month has been one rooted in the magic of doing one thing at a time, or at least attempting to (I’ve included a few helpful steps below). Much like us, creativity is fragile; it’s a beautiful little spark needing to be fed, nurtured, listened to and recharged. Wishing all of you a week filled with intention, connection, alignment and inspiration. Love, Misha x

1. Disconnecting to connect fully. Navigating away from e-mails, and social networks (hello, Social Dilemma) in order to be fully present in the moment.
2. Guarding time fiercely: being generous with it, but intentional about it.
3. Catching your breath: allowing intentional time, daily, to assess your focus and decide whether it aligns with your tasks, or your distractions
