Excellent Working Conditions

All tailors get fair pay for their work. The working process with the workers are close and open, and Elsien knows them all personally.

Supporting Traditional Skills

All products are made in the designers studio in the Netherlands by skilled tailors and Elsien herself. This way they are able to support and create work for a craftsmanship that in many ways is about to be forgotten. To choose this way of producing, Elsien is supporting local craftsmen, and are giving economic growth to her community.

Upcycling with Roll end fabric

This product is made using Roll end fabric. The fashion industry is renowned for the excess it creates. To combat this Elsien has bought unused ‘roll end’ fabric from larger fashion brands, and in this way hindered it in becoming waste. Although these fabrics may have been produced using environmentally damaging methods it is better than them going to landfills. It is used until it runs out.

Reducing Waste with Made to Order

Elsien focuses on highly innovative patterns, reducing the waste to the max. All Elsien Gringhuis’ design is built on the No Waste principle, trying to make a result of nearly no waste at all. All items are produced, on demand, not before you order them, which also saves the environment from overproduction

Low Carbon Footprint

By doing all her production in Holland, and sourcing her materials as close to home as possible, Elsien Gringhuis saves a lot of travel miles and carbon emissions in the production process.
