sustainability
OUR MISSION
At Rachel Riley, we make clothing, not fashion.
Our approach to sustainability is simple: Reduce, Re-use, Repair. We create timeless, high-quality clothing from carefully selected premium fabrics, designed to be worn, loved and passed on.
Our pieces are made to last — from one sibling to another, or from one generation to the next.
OUR CRAFT
We are committed to preserving traditional artisan techniques to create beautifully made, comfortable clothing for babies and children.
From traditional French seams, which provide a durable and hard-wearing finish, to hand-crafted footwear made by local shoemakers at Rachel’s atelier in the Loire Valley, every detail is considered.
Many of our distinctive prints are designed in-house, alongside carefully selected fabrics from trusted suppliers.
OUR PACKAGING
We consider the life of our packaging too.
Our garment protective bags are made from biodegradable materials, while our card and tissue paper is either recyclable or made from recycled materials.
Our signature lilac giftboxes are designed to be treasured and reused as keepsake boxes, while our hamper baskets can be repurposed for storing toys in nurseries and playrooms.
OUR PROMISE
We are committed to making thoughtful choices for the future of the children we dress today.
As a business, we are continually reviewing and improving our practices to reduce our environmental impact.
We encourage our customers to do the same: reduce, re-use and repair, and choose pieces that can be loved for years to come.
