About us
The fashion industry is broken.
So we set out to discover if clothing can ever be truly ethical AND fashionable. And thankfully, we are showing it can.
This is the future of fashion. And don't just take our word for it - we are being recognised across the media and by a growing number of celebrity ambassadors. From the highest environmental production standards to fair wages and long-term employment contracts for manufacturers.
And by donating ALL our profits to supporting more entrepreneurs, we ensure the cycle just keeps going, lifting families and whole communities out of entrenched poverty.
When you choose Origin, you choose a better future for us all.
