In the ever-evolving realm of fashion, 2023 unveils a vibrant transformation towards sustainability. As consumers raise their eco-conscious flags high, apparel retailers must don their creativity caps. Embrace green trends, offer ecofriendly choices, and craft a future that's as stylish as it is sustainable. Mulyo, a brand born out of a passion for sustainable fashion and a desire to make a difference in the world of children's clothing, embarks on a remarkable journey towards redefining how we dress our little ones. Mulyo is a homegrown conscious kidswear brand that aims to promote sustainable clothing for children and mamas while building environmental sincerity in young minds.
“When we started, we wanted to make something special for kids. We wanted to offer more than clothes that promoted sustainability, creativity, and comfort. After careful research, we seek to discover and alleviate parents' pain points in finding appropriate and sustainable clothing for their children”, states Shambhavi Jaiswal, Founder & CEO, Mulyo.
Nurturing Sustainable Style for Kids
Mulyo's journey began with an essential step – understanding the challenges faced by parents in the quest for suitable children's clothing. Sizing, fit, fabric quality and safety, size options, and accessibility were major challenges. With this vital understanding, Mulyo set out to create a brand that addressed these concerns while stressing sustainability and creativity. To do so, Mulyo's foundation created numerous fundamental concepts, including transparency.
By showing the entire apparel creation process, the business builds confidence with customers.
From dyeing to cutting and stitching, Mulyo lets customers see their child's clothing journey. Mulyo goes beyond organic cotton by employing the most ecofriendly materials available. As Mulyo is a pioneer in eco-friendly textiles, the brand educates customers on the numerous advantages of the materials used for children's apparel.
Furthermore, in-house production is a cornerstone of Mulyo's ethical practices. The brand's commitment extends beyond fashion, as it partners with the Seva Bharti NGO. This partnership empowers women, including domestic violence survivors and those with disabilities, by providing employment opportunities.
