<p>Hi Everyone,</p>
<p></p>
<p>I am looking for a Manufacturers in the UK or EU that are Fair Wear certified (or similar) and use organic cotton and recycled polyester. We are a small but fast growing company and want to get our hoodies made closer to home so we can visit the manufacturers and work together on designs, ideally we would love to find one in the EU so that we do not have to pay import which hit us hard last year.</p>

<p>Hi Everyone,</p>
<p></p>
<p>I am looking for a Manufacturers in the UK or EU that are Fair Wear certified (or similar) and use organic cotton and recycled polyester. We are a small but fast growing company and want to get our hoodies made closer to home so we can visit the manufacturers and work together on designs, ideally we would love to find one in the EU so that we do not have to pay import which hit us hard last year.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Last year we got our hoodies made in China and the quality was outstanding, they really do have some great machinery that I am struggling to find in UK / European Union! We need to get some samples made asap, with the full batch needing to be ready at the end of November! We have almost finished the designs for them and can send an example of our existing hoods..</p>
<p></p>
<p>They are feature-full with lots of pockets, we have 3 designs and 3 sizes in each design.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Any information anyone has on who to contact would be very much appreciated, we have been going in circles through web search alone.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Really pleased to of found this forum, some really great stuff on here!</p>
<p></p>

<p>Hi</p>
<p>I am running a sustainable outfit competition through my <a href="http://www.style-is.co.uk" target="_blank">sustainable fashion website</a> style-is.co.uk with a prize of £100 of shoes vouchers which can be used to buy from range of eco friendly shoe brands including Swedish Hasbeens, Timberland and Dream in Green.</p>
<p></p>
<p>The competition is open to anyone with a blog and Twitter account. All you have to do is make an outfit for spring featuring at least one sustainable piece of clothing including ethical brands, vintage and second hand. You can either make the outfit in real life and do an outfit post or create a dream outfit using a tool like Polyvore. Further details of the competition can be found here <a href="http://style-is.co.uk/news/sustainable-fashion-outfit-competition/">http://style-is.co.uk/news/sustainable-fashion-outfit-competition/</a></p>

<p><span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">Bel Esprit, the online showroom for ethical fashion has launched two programs to assist community cooperatives. Bel Esprit's Donate Design program will connect student designers with community cooperatives looking to create and develop fashion product lines. Students will gain real world experience in developing commercial products and communities will benefit from design assistance. Students of fashion design study the latest techniques and trends and can give artisan communities designs that reflect what the international fashion market is looking for. Bel Esprit will mentor the program, offering 25 years of industry experience to the projects. Fashion schools are welcome to organize a program on their campus to give students design internship experience while working for social and environmental justice.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">Communities interested in working with established designers to develop product for their international fashion collections can be connected to fashion designers, both established ethical designers and designers new to ethical fashion looking to change their business. Bel Esprit's sister showroom, Showroom International works with emerging and independent fashion all around the world, and interest in working with fair trade and ethical resources is growing. Bel Esprit gives designers and suppliers the means to connect at no cost. Contact <a href="mailto:donatedesign@gmail.com">donatedesign@gmail.com</a>.</span></p>

It is the mission of Bel Esprit to increase awareness of the importance of ethical principles in fashion, and promote the commitment to business principles that respect the world and its inhabitants.</p>
