Design Details
- Unique Properties
- The classical dresses are handmade from sustainable materials, the dresses are eco-friendly and ethically developed. They are timeless, so sustainability must force consumers to think, make responsible choices, and change their habits.
- Inspiration
- The creation of ELIA dress brand was inspired by the birth of children. It made the desire to give children the safest and best, always looking for only the softest clothes. Clothes, made from fabrics that meet the highest ecological standards, are not only healthier and more pleasant, but also more environmentally friendly. Such clothes last much longer, allowing the skin to breathe and glide pleasantly against them. Fabrics are chemical-free, so are also perfect for people with allergies.
- Research
- ELIA dress is convinced of the future and sustainable fashion, as more and more people around the world are becoming aware of the benefits of ecology and eco-friendly products. The phrase 'less is more' is becoming a lot more common because consumers lean more towards quality, exclusivity, and durability. Our classic dresses are part of slow fashion - timeless, stylish and wearable both now and after 10 years.
- Challenge
- At the beginning of the journey, a decision was made to use only GOTS-certified fabrics that meet the highest ecological standards. These fabrics are impossible to find in Lithuania. Most of them are produced with sustainability in mind only after ordering the fabrics arrive at us within a few months of ordering.
- Realization and Technology
- Only GOTS-certified organic cotton and organic linen fabrics that meet the highest environmental standards are used in the process of dressmaking.
- Operation and Interaction
- The dresses fit as casual wear as well as on occasions. White organic cotton or organic linen classic dresses are also great for baptisms.
- Project Duration and Location
- ELIA dress was created in 2020 in Kaunas, Lithuania. The dresses were successfully presented in the exhibition dedicated to the Lithuanian production "Choose a Lithuanian Product 2021".
- Specifications
- The dresses are made for girls from 2 to 12 years. All dresses are preorder items - the production starts only after order is made.
