Fashion can be a very exploitative industry...particularly if you are an artist living in a third world nation. So Fair Trade fashion truly interests me - Made is an outlet for the sale of goods by Eastern Africans. All Made products are designed by influential designers, then sourced and created within disadvantaged communities across East Africa. They train local artisans in new skills, providing fair wages and support at every level. The jewellery is authentic and simply stunning - the best part...the ethos behind the company; that extra feel-good, fair-trade factor makes the jewellery so much more appealing.
