Sit awhile (repeat print)
'Sit awhile' encompasses a blind contour drawing of native flora which was then developed into a delightful repeat pattern and screen printed in our Melaleuca Rise Print and Textiles Studio.
Soft LIGHT CHARCOAL organic cotton sits beautifully against the skin with a relaxed fit that feels great on all bodies. (Please note some of our current Fair Share T's have a higher neckline with a slightly thicker band. Please contact us if you would like to see a blank sample before purchase.
A Small Change Makes a Big Difference
Continental Clothing Co, working together with the Fair Fashion Network and BSD Consulting, has implemented a scheme that aims to deliver a LIVING WAGE for the garment workers at its factory in India. The first stage of the wage increase has come into effect from 1st January 2016 and covers the entire workforce.
A living wage should cover the basic needs of the workers and their families, allow for some savings and must be earned within a 48 hours working week
A benchmark was calculated for minimum earnings required to provide a decent living for a typical family in the area. The difference between the current wages and the living wage was then converted into the additional amount that needs to be paid for each garment produced at the factory. The premium that has been added to the cost of each garment is documented as a separate item and goes directly to the workers with their monthly wages.
