We select certified natural or artificial fibres . Natural materials come from textile fibers directly produced by nature, in particular plant fibers (organic cotton, linen, hemp, etc.) or animal fibers (wool, silk, etc.): We select natural woven and dyed textile materials. in Europe and preferably organic or labeled when possible. Artificial materials are materials derived from fibers made from natural materials but requiring chemical transformation to become a fiber (Viscose, Tencel, Lyocell, etc.). For these textile materials and in particular for the viscose that we use a lot, we ensure that they are FSC certified, meaning that the wood pulp comes from responsible forest production.
Using quality natural, ecological or certified textile materials contribute to environmental protection at the source. We strive to use certified materials for our fabrics. Our suppliers are also working to gradually have their fabrics certified.

What textile materials for your clothes?
All our scrap materials are recycled and reused for the manufacture of limited series or for charitable projects. Recycling our textile materials is an integral part of our organization.
Our clothes are designed according to a responsible logic, that is to say that from the design, the selection of materials, its design logic and its manufacturing method, the style team ensures that the future garment is as least possible pollutant. The team studies the life cycle of the future product: What is the origin of the fiber which constitutes the material of the future clothing? Under what conditions are the materials woven, taking into account the mode and place of weaving but also under what conditions did the people weave the materials? Then she studies the manufacturing conditions of the garment using the same logic. The design of the garment itself is important: will the assembly conditions be strong enough? Will the construction of the garment allow for easy repair or transformation, thereby extending the life of the garment? Furthermore, the company ensures the recycling of remaining fabrics, the end of life of clothing by supporting customers on recycling options, second hand, etc.
Choosing to manufacture in France has been a strong choice for our company since the creation of the brand. This approach allows us to perpetuate French sewing know-how and to employ haute couture trades such as our pleaters, embroiderers, etc. When we manufacture a garment made in France, it is also a question of transmission . of know-how within the workshop to help our teams grow. Manufacturing in France also allows us, on our scale, to contribute to employment in France .

It is the combination of clothing made with sustainable and ethical ecological materials with beautiful finishes which allows the source to better protect the environment. Selecting a quality material but also the workmanship and beautiful finishes contribute to the durability of the garment and its ability to repair it. Sourcing ethical materials woven in Europe combined with local quality production made in France helps limit the impact of an ethical fashion brand on its environment.
Responsible consumption is within the reach of every man and woman who wishes to consume and limit their ecological and environmental footprint. Choosing quality natural, organic or certified organic cotton fabrics is a good practice but it is not enough on its own to stop the harmful effect of the made in France fashion industry on our environment. Our own volume of clothing consumption has a big impact on the planet. Unlike fast fashion brands which encourage overconsumption with an abundant supply mainly in polyester and low quality fabrics which pollute the planet, we encourage reasoned and quality consumption: consume less but better.
In this ethical logic, extending the life of clothes is at the heart of a mode of reasoned consumption and an ethical and responsible fashion: Designing clothes to be able to repair them, manufacturing ethical clothes in quality textile materials allows to plan the repair or the transformation after a few years. If the fabric is recyclable then the end of life of the garment after repair and second-hand cycle will be possible: We can therefore speak of ethical clothing suitable for sustainable and eco-responsible consumption.
At Anahide Saint André, we design eco-responsible clothing designed to be installed in your wardrobe for a long time. Our line of reversible or modular ethical clothing, the choice of certified fabrics with a label fits perfectly into this logic. This approach associated with a selection of natural materials, labeled or from dormant stocks, puts us in this logic, with the objective of strengthening our eco-responsible approach every day to limit the impact of the brand on the environment as much as possible. .
