With no impact on the food chain (both animal and human), EVO is low impact and water saving. 

 

Sustainability:

This product was consciously made to reduce our footprint and supports our mission to be a little bit better every day. 

 

As the fashion industry is the second biggest producer of carbon emissions in the world, SLO has made it our mission to reduce our carbon footprint by utilising earth-conscious materials in every aspect of our business.

 

The entire Retreat Collection is made from EVO fabric sourced from castor beans with no impact on the food chain and water-saving. We work closely with the Italian factory to ensure ethical manufacturing and minimal carbon emissions during distribution. Any pieces that are damaged or no longer of any use can be sent back to be fixed for free or we will recycle them for you. All packaging and hangtags are made from recycled materials. 

 

Size & Fit

Our pieces are designed around real women and with real sizing in mind. We celebrate how every woman's body varies in different ways, but this also means not all styles will fit every body type the same. If you have a larger bust or larger hips, we recommend sizing up. Feel free to reach out to us with any sizing questions.
