We are storytellers
Our purpose is to provoke a deeper connection between people. The messages on our t-shirts will be bewildering, surprising and maybe even slightly confusing. We want each of our designs to embark on a journey once sent out into the world, becoming conversation starters leading people to share stories and compassion.
To make sure we keep your attention and to create an analogy with literature – where the journey of our brand started – each collection will be handled as a new chapter with its own story to tell.
We celebrate slow fashion
Leave to Wonder is all about creating mindful, curated and limited collections based on exquisite craftsmanship – made to be worn and loved for years, not just one season.
We are committed to being a part of the sustainable movement in the fashion industry, paving the way for change. We believe in creating fashion that is responsible and transparent and strive for circularity throughout the entire value chain.
We have chosen to produce all our apparel in the Porto area in the north of Portugal, one of the leading industry clusters within sustainable fashion. Cooperating closely with our manufacturing partner Siena (www.siena.pt) the key is careful selection of raw materials, and intelligent use of resources in order to minimize waste, increase recycling and improve transparency and traceability.
By spending more time on the design process in order to carefully craft a limited edition of each design, we also limit unsold inventory and reduce our environmental impact.
We strive for quality that lasts
We start by prioritizing quality that lasts. Our clothes are made to be worn and loved for years, not just one season. We believe in investing in high-quality materials to ensure that our pieces are comfortable and stand the test of time.
After a long consideration, we choose to produce in Portugal, one of the world leaders in sustainable fashion, because of its huge amount of knowhow, exquisite craftsmanship and their deep understanding of the environmental impact of the fashion industry.
We design for real people
Fashion should be inclusive, regardless of gender identity or body type. That’s why we design unisex, taking away the focus on gender and making sure our clothes fit to a big range of shapes. This belief will also be noticeable in the way we display our collections. It’s not about gender. it’s about being human. Leave to Wonder attempts to be more than a fashion brand. It attempts to regain a sense of belonging with like-minded individuals.
