Mending & Repair 101
We all want to steward our resources better–whether that’s our time, money, energy, or stuff. That also includes our wardrobe items.
Sustainability
Thinking of spending for Christmas
Through the years, there have been many ways to think creatively about gifts. Whether it’s been making gifts, re-purposing presents, upcycling items, or just generally trying to think “outside the box” with possible ideas, try something different this year.
Black for Friday
Black is a great colour to wear any day–not just on a Friday…I want to focus on something else–the Little Black Dress (otherwise known as LBD). This wardrobe winner is a sustainable workhorse.
What’s in a Dress?
Shopping ethically can be hard on the pocketbook. And though clothing is a necessity, we really don’t NEED more clothing…..it might be helpful to show you a bit about what goes into an Aletheia Apparel garment. In an attempt to be transparent, I will show you my Alex Dress make.
Doing it at home
Let’s focus on some of the many talented Kiwi designers–both in New Zealand and abroad. Why not support some of these designers and the great work they do?
Looking Ahead
As prices of supplies rise and more fashion industry businesses seem to be closing or going overseas, Aletheia Apparel is looking ahead to the year(s) to come. There will be some changes to ensure longevity. This is exciting!

How you can make better fashion choices?
How can YOU make better fashion choices? Simply put – engage in SLOW FASHION. Slow fashion may be purchased, but you can also make your own clothes as part of the movement.
Create the WARDROBE you love…
Creating your own capsule wardrobe saves you time, money, and stress. If you know that every item in your closet will coordinate together, you do not have to spend as much time thinking about what to wear.
Shopping Responsibly….
Prices are rising everywhere, so how can someone reasonably shop responsibly? Looking for sustainable fashion brands is one way to steward the resources we have.
