Modern, French Luxury Basics | Empowering Women & Supporting the Planet
les sublimes
"THE STRENGTH OF A GIRL-BOSS, THE SPIRIT OF A GLOBAL CITIZEN AND THE HEART OF A WORLD-CHANGER."
Someone pinch me - I've found the softest black tee on this planet. Based in the lovely city of Paris, Les Sublimes adds a touch of sustainability and style to our essential everyday garments. Those tees, tanks, and dresses that make our wardrobe effortless now have a conscious twist! They don't want us to compromise when it comes to the basics, so let us all say 'bye' to that $5 t-shirt & 'hello' to sustainable, accessible, French luxury :D
Created by two Girl Bosses, Kachen Hong & Alexis Assoignon, Les Sublimes is the perfect brand to kickstart Women's International Week'. A women-led company & designs made just for amazing worldly women - it makes sense to celebrate & share them this week, right!? Not to mention, their mission goes beyond the actual product. They have a purpose - to empower women, make a global impact and open their hearts to spread happiness to everyone - aka #beingSUBLIMES.
To understand the concept a little bit better, see below for a super cute bubble chart {complete with a heart}:
Les Sublimes believes education is key to elevating poverty. Therefore, each item purchased supports one month of education for a young girl in need. Did you know one extra year of primary school boosts girls' future wages by 10-20%?! & then another year of secondary school adds 15-25% on top of this! I absolutely love it when a fashion brand reaches out to the global community and enables the opportunity for young women to learn and grow.
I'm wearing the Stockholm Luxury Tee {in black, but you can find it in white & rose, too!!}. Like I said before, SERIOUSLY THE SOFTEST & CHICEST TEE EVER makes it perfect for every day & any occasion. The relaxed fit has a feminine neckline and a curved hem for effortless tucking and untucking. && the Stockholm is made from one of my favorite fabrics, MicroModal! While a maximum of 10% of fibers used are synthetic {for movement, durability, and comfort purposes}, Les Sublimes goes above and beyond to find the best natural and botanical fibers with minimal carbon footprints. Their current collection features two fabrics - Lenzing MicroModal {made from Austrian beechwood} and GOTS Cotton {a certification giving you peace of mind from farmer to maker}. All garments are ethically manufactured at a family-owned factory about 400 km south of Paris in Renaison, France. Even high-quality consideration went into their yarns which are made in Northern France, and their tags are made from recycled poly by a Taiwanese family business. But that's not all, folks... their shipping materials are sourced locally, and orders are shipped with a carbon-neutral delivery service.
WOW! #lesSUBLIMES ;)
