A Slow Approach

TO EARTH-CONSCIOUS DESIGN 

WUESTE a slow approach
THE JOURNEY CHANGES YOU; IT SHOULD CHANGE YOU. IT LEAVES MARKS ON YOUR MEMORY, YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS, ON YOUR HEART, AND ON YOUR BODY. YOU TAKE SOMETHING WITH YOU. HOPEFULLY, YOU LEAVE SOMETHING GOOD BEHIND.
Anthony Bourdain 

Leaving nothing behind 

Fast fashion threatens our way of life with ever-growing landfill waste, toxic air and water pollution and a blatant disrespect of humanity itself in unethical production chains. A conscious approach to fashion consumption must start with a more mindful approach to fashion design. 

  WUESTE is passionate about changing fashion consumers into Earth-first advocates. Our garments are made from 100% earth-friendly, exclusively plastic-free and compostable materials in limited-run capsule collections. By using plant-based materials we ensure no microplastics are released into the oceans and no animals suffer in the making of our collection.

Our plant-based approach does not stop short of our packaging and branding materials; all of which are biodegradable and vegan.

Sustainably Made 

During the design process, we evaluate each material from a functionality and sustainability performance angle in order to make the most responsible choice for your pieces. The majority of our materials are already sourced in the USA and all our garments are produced in California by our production partner who complies with the local ethical labor regulations.

Giving Back 

We aim to reduce our impact, use our voice to raise awareness and facilitate change. As we grow, we will grow our community and build stronger partnerships.
