With the world around us in upheaval–earthquakes, floods, wars, pandemics–and businesses struggling, Aletheia Apparel is committed to the following:
Doing Good: supporting the NZ Cancer Society and primarily supporting NZ businesses
Quality: superior fabrics and excellent construction of garments
Personal Service: prime alteration services, free repairs on all Aletheia garments, and personalised consultations
Style: continued offerings of classic and stylish designs that are timeless and feminine
Customisation: being able to select options for your perfect garment
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!
What’s changing:
ONE-ON-ONE – Mandy is the sole person behind the Aletheia label (creator, maker, web designer, social media manager, you get the idea…). So, to keep things more simple, I’ll start addressing you as me! Let’s get more personal. 🙂
SIZE RANGE – When I first started, I really wanted to offer extended sizes. However, for a variety of reasons, I will be reducing my size range. If you have questions, please ask away! If you have something you would like, and don’t see your size, I can probably still accomodate you.
CUSTOM OPTIONS – Although you will still be able to select your customisations (sleeve length, dress length, etc.) at no additional cost, made-to-measure customisations may be an additional cost.
NEW STYLES – Of course there will be some new styles! But some of the styles will also be retired. Instead of a whole new collection at once, there will be individual pieces available–so watch out for new items in the store! If you’re not already subscribed to our newsletter, this is where you want to get advance notice.
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?
Slow fashion pioneers support the movement as encouraging slower production, unifying sustainability with ethics, and ultimately inviting consumers to invest in well-made and lasting clothes.

Anyone who knows me, knows I like coffee. I like the taste as well as the enjoyment of sitting and drinking that cuppa–with a friend while chatting, by myself while reflecting, during work to help me along, just whenever! For you it may not be coffee–maybe it’s tea, water, or just time to sit with…
We’re excited for the new season—a fresh approach, a clean start, and some added products. Watch the website over the next 2 months as these changes are rolled out. You don’t want to miss anything!
