L'Envers is a 100% slow fashion brand coming out with only two collections per year, and products are not discontinued (unless there's a fabric thread shortage), so they are real timeless pieces and there is no rush in buying.
Timelessness is at the heart of L'Envers' design approach: designing pieces that last, that do not fade away
All of L'Envers knitwear is knitted upon order: no stock at all on knitwear, even for B2B partners. They require 3 weeks lead time for the production of any product. Their woven pieces are produced in small batches or on pre-order
L'Envers is a small but powerful business
L'Envers run sizes from XS to XL and is aiming to improve to XXL in 2022. Photographs of their products are taken on multiple body types which are represented on their social media and website
The whole story of l'envers is about conservation of craftsmanship and know how, with the aim of transmitting it for generations: They work with ateliers that were at the heart of the knitting tradition of Spain in the early 20th century and that slowly went down due to the fact that modern transportation did not reach their village
They only work with suppliers that are within Europe or are strongly assessed by certifications (materials and people) such as GOTS. Regarding local providers, they know them all personally and do not negotiate prices with them in order to ensure the best living wage and not pressure them
L'Envers donate to Clean Clothes campaign (1% of their annual profits) to sustain garment workers all over the world
L'Envers is a women-owned business, and 75% women-powered!
L'Envers products are made in Spain 80% for the reason mentioned before. Only 20% of products are made in France for the unbelievable mohair quality there and where our hand-knitted pieces are done
L'Envers ships their products in an eco-packaging. They have been using exclusively recycled paper packaging since two years, and they have taken out all single-use plastics. They use biodegradable compostable plastic over the recycled craft mailers
L'envers was born initially as a knitwear brand but they have developed also woven collections since 2019. For these, they refused to have any material produced and source only upcycled fabrics from French Luxury houses. They also visit linen factories in Northern France to dig into their deadstock. For upcycled materials, L'Envers maintain a 0% synthetic fiber ethos
L'envers uses 100% guaranteed Mulesing free Merino wool and RWS wools
