3. What is deadstock fabric?

At Coco Maisonette, we source beautiful, deadstock fabric from renewable sources. This means that instead of the fabric going to a landfill, we get to repurpose it into your beautiful garment! Using deadstock fabric reduces textile waste, minimizes the environmental impact of new fabric production, and creates unique designs that are not mass-produced because deadstock fabric is often limited in quantity.

4. What are the reasons behind the higher cost of sustainable fashion?

Sustainable fashion costs more to produce than conventional fashion due to eco-friendly materials and fair wages for workers, resulting in higher prices. Sustainable fashion brands produce in smaller quantities with high quality materials, which adds to the cost, but investing in sustainable fashion supports a responsible and eco-conscious industry with long-term benefits for people and the planet <3.
