Our vision

is a sustainable future for both women with a distance to employment and small fashion/lifestyle brands in Amsterdam.


Our mission

Our social mission is to bridge the gap to future employment for women whilst supporting conscious brands. We offer a safe environment where women gain professional skills, on the job experience and confidence to work in commercial fashion/lifestyle production. We also provide small, conscious brands with professional guidance and good value production. In this way, we create a more sustainable future for both our trainees and clients.

We achieve this by...
