Dress for the world you want
Sustainability is one of our founding values. Eliot tries to be as sustainable as possible, helping to protect and leave a better world for those who will come after us.
​
Here are some of the reasons for our choices:
THE FABRIC
Bamboo is a plant whose cultivation has a very low environmental impact: it consumes 70% less water than traditional crops and very often only needs rainwater; has minimal carbon dioxide emissions and emits a large amount of oxygen.
​
It is a fast growing weed that can be grown without the use of synthetic chemical fertilizers, pesticides or defoliants. Its harvest takes place approximately every 3 years, avoiding the devastating processes of deforestation and the cycle of intensive monoculture agriculture.
​
The characteristics of bamboo give a very high quality to the garments and make them breathable, with a high capacity to absorb and wick liquids, such as humidity and sweat, which evaporate three times faster than traditional cotton, keeping the body temperature at the right level and removing bad smells.
​
Particularly suitable for delicate and sensitive skin, it prevents redness and irritation .
​
​
"Love at first touch" came with a bamboo jersey, made by an Italian laboratory, which creates high quality natural fabrics.
​
FSC and Oeko - Tex 100 certifications guarantee harmlessness to human health and the environment.
PRODUCTION
We have visited companies that work for us, which guaranteeing comfortable and compliant working environments, transmit the precious work of their artisan hands to our products.
With Eliot you can be sure of who created your clothes and we are proud to support the economy of our country by relying on small local excellences.
​
Furthermore, as they are all made in Italy, they do not have to travel from one continent to another thus reducing CO2 emissions.
The Eliot Loungewear is versatile and can be worn on different occasions. There is no need to have a thousand different dresses in our wardrobe. Quality over quantity as quality lasts over time and does not follow the speed of today's fashion!
PACKAGING
Our packaging has been designed to reduce the environmental impact as much as possible by being 100% recyclable or reusable.
​
In fact, inside the recycled cardboard box, you will find precious mulberry paper that you can reuse for example to line a drawer or create a lampshade and a linen ribbon that you can reuse in a thousand ways from how beautiful and refined it is.
CARE
Wear it, love it and take care of it, respecting the environment and the people who live it.
​
Today we are always in a hurry, even when we have to take care of our laundry. We tend to assume that if clothes were to get damaged, we could always buy more.
​
A slight change in personal habits can have a huge impact! From detergent choice to drying, the right care for your clothes can not only make them last longer and be more comfortable, but can reduce the impact it has on our environment.
​
Read the tag that you will find inside the package, do not throw it away! You will find tips on how to take care of our loungewear.
​
PRICE
What we would like to convey to you is that behind the price, from the weaving of the yarn to the opening of the box, there is the love and passion for their work of many people, who put their experience to create something unique with hands that will be in contact with your skin.
​
Buying sustainable and quality clothing not only helps the environment, but also the people who experience it.

We thank you for choosing to invest in a product made responsibly, to love and that will accompany you over time.
