Did you know that fashion is the second most polluting industry in the world? This is due to an accelerated cycle of production, consumption and disposal. However, a global movement towards sustainable fashion is gaining momentum.
In our atelier, we believe that each dress tells a story and represents a commitment to the future. We work daily to make choices that respect the environment, creating pieces that combine quality and style. For us, sustainability goes beyond the use of ecological fabrics — it permeates every stage of production and conscious consumption.
Discover our sustainable practices
60% of the fabrics we use come from environmentally and socially certified suppliers, such as Werner Tecidos. In our atelier, we are always striving to improve this figure, choosing options that reduce environmental impact. For us, sustainability goes beyond materials: it is an ongoing process that involves the entire production chain, from sourcing to the moment the dress is ready for your big day.
Werner Tecidos, our main supplier, has important seals such as Prime Energy 2023-2027 and Abvtex Ouro. They adopt several sustainable practices, such as the use of biodegradable dyes and water treatment systems.
Silk fabrics, or fabrics containing silk, have unique and special characteristics. Always associated with luxury and sophistication, their production remains complex and limited, which is what makes them so precious. With extremely fine threads, these fabrics are incredibly light, smooth and soft to the touch, in addition to displaying a delicate shine and vibrant colors. Silk has the ability to absorb up to 30% of its weight in water, providing comfort and protection against humidity and perspiration. Although silk thread is resistant, the fabrics that use it are delicate and require special care.
Sustainability goes beyond inputs:
It is a philosophy that permeates our entire production chain and our relationship with our employees. That is why we believe that Second Hand Tuo is an important practice for our brand.
And how does it work? Twice a year we curate dresses that have only been worn once, ready to be worn by a new star: you! Buying a second-hand dress is not just a way to save money, it is a way to extend the life of a piece of clothing and contribute to a more sustainable future.
These dresses have been worn by brides who, like you, value quality, design and sustainability. They are available at special prices and ready to be adapted to suit you with the necessary adjustments.
Sustainability doesn't mean giving up on your dream, it means realizing your dream in a way that respects the planet and promotes conscious consumption. Unique pieces, with stories and a new future.

Our Commitment to the Community
In addition to prioritizing sustainability in the use of fabrics, our supplier also ensures that waste and spare materials have a sustainable destination. They donate fabric scraps to social projects and collaborate with initiatives that empower women in vulnerable situations, such as 'Sewing with Love'. Each step is designed to ensure that the entire journey is as sustainable as possible.
Like other industries, fashion faces the challenge of moving towards sustainability. The negative impacts of fast fashion intensify the need for a transformation that prioritizes the environment and values workers.
But we know that finding the perfect dress can be one of the biggest challenges for a bride. Our commitment is to create an experience in which you feel confident and natural in the dress you have chosen. Every detail is carefully thought out, from the handmade production to the selection of high-quality materials, to ensure an exclusive and impeccable result.
Additionally, our team is made up of 100% incredible women who share our commitment to sustainability and creating high-quality dresses. We strive to achieve sustainability at every possible point of our brand, whether by providing more comfortable working conditions for our employees or choosing good inputs and suppliers that are aligned with our purpose.
