LIFECYCLE, LOVE & CARE

 

Lifecycle, Circular, Responsible and Sustainable Design practices are woven into our work and relationship with materials and objects, traditions and skills, place and people.

When you shop from this range of clothing and accessories, textiles and crafted goods by High Tea with Mrs Woo, you are very much part of and in support of these inspired actions, projects and communities.

As you enjoy your clothes, they will age, wear and tear. When your clothes break, mend them with gold thread. Launder and look after them well so that they're still good to pass on when they don't fit you anymore.

All our garments are made with natural fibre fabrics so they are biodegradable at the end of their useful lives. When that time comes, you can send these clothes to a recycling service (see UPPAREL) or check with us about their compostability.

Please contact us directly if you need more information - we'd love to hear from you!
