MARIA MCMANUS

-- --

Its Instagram biography says "made with the future in mind" and it could be defined as the brand statement. In collaboration with her friend Stella Ishii, Maria created the Maria Mcmanus brand with very specific goals in mind: to use less water, less chemicals and create less waste. Simple and functional designs convey effortless elegance, taking into account not only the well-being of the women, but also of the planet. The brand uses purely regenerated, organic, biodegradable and natural textile fibers carefully sourced from Europe.  Recycled cashmere, organic cotton, recycled nylon, merino wool are the fabrics mainly used and certified by associations such as Global Recycled Standard and Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS). In addition, the brand unveils a vintage section on its website, thanks to which one can give a second life to clothes, now forgotten, sold through selected specialty stores from Paris. The entire production chain is traceable and every person involved in the production of Mcmanus clothing receives a decent salary, which makes the brand 100% transparent and ethical.
