Since 2008 this UK based company has been making cool eco-friendly collections full of wardrobe essentials made ethically from natural, organic materials with a serious style punch in a Fairwear Foundation audited, wind powered factory. Their women’s collection is about creating super soft, flattering basics- eco fashion essentials across the board that are made to last and outlast seasons. Rob Drake Knight, Co Founder states that “The great thing about using eco-fabrics is that they are naturally softer, more breathable and comfy.”
Designer Martin Drake-Knight states "At Rapanui we want to make it convenient for people to shop quickly, with a conscience. Eco Fashion no longer has to be exclusive or expensive.” A special 10% discount code "fashionablytied" is extended to "Fashionably Tied" readers. So take a look at their women’s organic clothing and do your bit for nature.
