Artisans and Materials
Dans Le Soleil is committed to empowering artisans, being kinder to the environment and creating beautiful products for all you graceful women out there. Suppliers we choose to work with follow the same ethos as us, they’re picked after long conversations around quality, sustainability and principles of protecting the most vulnerable in the fashion chain.
Our Materials
Considering the environmental impact of fashion on the earth we're committed to only using earth-friendly materials and vegetable/natural dyes derived from plants for colouring our bags. Each piece is made with integrity and care from the highest-quality materials such as jute and Water Hyacinth (straw).
We also take a step further by ensuring our packaging boxes are biodegradable and almost the right size to minimize waste.
