This holiday season shop with a purpose. Each of these unique businesses has at least one of two commitments: decrease fashion’s ecological and environmental impact, and/or ensure safe workplaces and livable wages for all workers. Each of these gifts has double the reward: a great gift for you to give (or keep), as well as directly supporting businesses and artisans around the world.

Mallory Ann founded Interwoven Collective with a simple goal: make room for more women at the table.
