ANGeLRoX is very concerned about sustainability and our impact on our planet. They design products that are timeless and transcend the wasteful fashion engine that encourages consumers to wear items for a season and then consider them "out" the next.
Their collection offers a
continuum of signature styles that can be used for a variety of activities and occasions. ANGeLRoX designs are created with versatility in mind and they try to educate the customer on the various ways they can use and enjoy their purchases in order to maximize value and minimize waste. Fabrics are naturally derived bamboo, rayon & cotton, fibers that are sumptuous on the skin and biodegradeable. Most of the collection is produced in Brooklyn, NY using locally sourced fabrics. The few items imported are made in facilities that guarantee fair wages and are sweat shop free.
Their best eco example is their wrap that can be worn as a skirt, various dresses, tops, cape etc making it a perfect travel companion and eliminating the need to buy multiple pieces. It is made from bamboo / spandex jersey. Sustainable and renewable, bamboo also feels great and possesses natural antibiotic properties which translates into less laundering, cutting down on water and energy consumption.
ANGeLRoX conducts 95% of its business via digital outlets and direct sales. They do not produce and distribute printed catalogs, instead focusing on low impact in house printings and reusable postcards. Their practice has always been to recycle including the reuse of office supplies, product packaging and materials for designs. They produce from remnant goods that would otherwise be waste for the industry whenever possible. They also fit small designs into empty areas in cutting to increase fabric utilization and minimize waste. Even the selvedge edges of fabrics which must be removed in production are repurposed as ties for bundles or braided into decorative trim in designs.
