POSITIVELY DKC ♻️
"Fashion shouldn't cost the earth, and someone, somewhere is paying for our bad choices. So wear clothes that matter and help protect our beautiful planet so that I can grow up to enjoy it the same way you have"
In today's fast-paced world, where trends come and go in the blink of an eye, it's easy to get caught up in the cycle of buying new clothes for our children every season. But what if there was a way to enjoy luxury childrenswear without contributing to the environmental impact of the fashion industry? That's where we come in.
We're reinventing ownership so people can start appreciating the beauty of circular fashion - a harmonious dance between luxury fashion, environmental responsibility and the celebration of personal style.
We believe that by adopting a circular mindset for fashion, everyone can have access to the clothes they need, when they need them, whilst capturing the full value of clothing during and after use.
