We use biodegradable, natural fibres as much as possible in our garments including cotton, bamboo, rayon (viscose), silk, linen and tencel.

For hand-made fabrics we only produce exactly what we need, never in excess. Leftover fabric scraps are made into scrunchies, hair ties or small jewellery bags that the local community sell. We try to reduce transportation impacts (carbon emissions) by buying stock fabric local to our manufacturer in India and by shipping our finished garments via sea freight whenever possible. We don’t use any plastic in our packaging for freight and instead garments are packed into branded cotton tote bags and then biodegradable cardboard cartons.

We use eco-friendly dyes in our fabrics and where possible we hand-dye these in small batches to reduce water consumption.

We don't believe in fast-fashion. Our garments are produced with the highest quality fabrics and finishing, and when cared for properly should stay wardrobe staples for a long time. We recommend our customers always follow the care label in their Libertine The Label garment. Cold hand washing and line drying saves an enormous amount of electricity and water and will help keep our products looking as good as new (as is reasonable for their age).
