Helping you to build a conscious wardrobe..
As time goes on, fast fashion & slow fashion are phrases that we are getting to hear more and more often, we also find that we are shifting our focus to look for clothes & accessories that have less impact on our environment. We all have a social & ethical responsibility and we have found being a sustainable brand is key for Dalton's in today's ever changing environment. We are proud to be a part of the slow fashion movement. Each of our collections is designed to last and stay in your wardrobe and out of land fill for not just seasons, but years to come.
Small & independent brands are natural leaders when it comes to slow fashion & sustainability as you can trace the entire life cycle of one item. We at Dalton's are proud that all our products are handmade in London & Somerset, many collections still handmade by ourselves.
Sustain Your Style
We believe that mindful purchasing is vital. Buying with purpose & investing in quality. Unlike alternative synthetic materials, leather is well known for it's durability, elegance and timeless appearance. Modern leather manufacturing recycles over 270 million cattle hides a year, without the ability of the leather industry, 7 million tonnes would go to landfill each year. Leather being a byproduct from another industry means no additional land or resources are used. Leather makes a sustainable contribution to a society that needs to consume less, reuse more and recycle everything
Our top tips to help you build a capsule wardrobe & leave fast fashion in your past..
Steer clear of trends that won't stand the test of time.
Stick to classic & timeless mood boards
Quality not quantity.. Invest in quality made pieces that you can see yourself wearing for many seasons
If you can't see yourself wearing the item more than 30 times, don't get it!
Avoid synthetic fabrics where possible, natural materials wear well, last longer & are a byproduct!
Recycling Fashion At It's Best..
Not only do we hate to see any our of our finished products go to waste but also any off cuts. For that reason we run a seconds and samples sale so that any faulty or discontinued products get re-homed at great prices. We also ensure that all offcuts are recycled and make them into card holders, clutch bags & key rings. We are also now entirely plastic free. Every single order that leaves our workshop does so in recyclable postage and gift boxes.
Quality we can promise
We are & always will be obsessed with making products exceptionally well. Leather that softens, stitching that stays stitched & buckles that stay buckled for years to come.We love products that last.
