EcoUnique: Indie, Handmade, One of a Kind

Made with organic and sustainable fabrics such as hemp and tencel, Jess Fraley's line of made-to-order and one-of-a-kind clothing is sewn by Fraley herself, in her home state of Oregon. Her pieces have clean, classic lines, but are sumptuously earthy at the same time, without becoming hippy dippy. (No tie-dyes here, dudes and dudettes.)
Although EcoUnique's most-affordable garment is $110, you'll have the peace of mind that you're not purchasing disposable, pesticide-soaked togs that were mass-produced by exploited labor in a third-world sweatshop somewhere. Yeah, that was a mouthful, but we've encouraged you to know your farmer before; maybe it's time we got acquainted with the person behind the sewing machine. ::EcoUnique
