impact
Sustainability plays a big role.
Our special and exclusive concept invites for a new way of doing fashion. We believe we are not only on this planet to consume, but also to contribute. By not only saying, but in the act of doing. That's why we are a proud member of 1% for the planet.
We believe the resources used during production and the long-term effects should not be underestimated. Act now, the future does not change automatically.
Therefore we seek [dead] stock garment for future drops to minimize garment waste and only work with ateliers that are fully and rightly licensed. Besides that we solely use leather that has been awarded with the Gold Certificate from the Leather Network Group.
We want all our fabrics to be of traceable origin in Europe and strive to only use eco-friendly, [dead] stock or recycled materials for all purposes, from shoeboxes to hangtags. We look for certificated materials and transport goods and people in the most sustainable way.
The result is a concept without overproduction, no necessary sales and no standard buy-in cycles. This is better for the environment and leaves a smaller footprint.
End your Affêre
Although someone could have a place in your heart forever, some things could simply still come to an end. In case you're done with your Affêre, we encourage you to donate or refurbish him, her or it, instead of a harsh break up.
We champion kindness and compassion. And welcome all types of bodies and minds. Affêre has some very important work ethics that listen to the name of: appreciation, transparency, elegant, women-friendly, timeless, fun, limited, exclusive, genderless and colourful.
