Years of fun we’ve had creating bags, accessories, and other funky stuff, and taking action through Outliv, for people and our planet.
2018
The year Outliv showed at New Zealand Fashion Week in the inaugural 'Good Sustainable Style Show’.
5 events coordinated and 365 people reached helping to raise awareness and encourage more conscious action and change.
Our Story.
We believe that clothing should not be so easily discarded and disposed of, and that fabric should out live us!
It's no secret anymore that the manufacturing of new textiles and clothing is extremely polluting, with toxic chemicals being flushed into our rivers, oceans and seas. And with the “fast fashion” clothing culture being considered ‘throw-away’ our landfills are filling up, one garbage truck full of textiles every second, and creating greenhouse gases affecting our climate.
This is all pretty shit right?!! Which is why we choose to create differently.
We take on waste as our design challenge, and upcycle pre-loved clothing and forgotten fabrics to make our rad, unique bags and accessories. We have also committed to donating to the local organisation Sea Cleaners, with every bag we sell… contributing to a more regenerative product keeping the future of fashion and our planet at heart.
