With the #xinjiangcotton story driving new conversations about the need for ethical fashion, we would like to take this moment to share why ethical production is so close to our own hearts at Marcellamoda and why we hope more brands will join us in taking a stand against abuse within the fashion industry.
Our Creative Director, Siyana Huszar, the granddaughter of one of Bulgaria’s most famous designers, is no stranger to the hard work and passion seamstresses pour into their craft. Having lived this experience herself as a third generation female designer, Siyana champions exemplary wages and humane labor conditions for the many professionals who call Marcellamoda their home. Having a standard 40-hour work week (and paid overtime), 20 days paid vacation annually, paid sick leave, free health care and full pensions, our brand believes in setting the tone for the working and living conditions fashion production workers deserve. Our predominantly female team handcrafts all of our designs and we believe that their dedication, their expert craftsmanship and their joy imbues each of our collections.
At Marcellamoda, we are beyond proud of our mission to support people and our planet. We encourage you to #supportethicalfashion
