ABOUT MADRE
MADRE is a brand inspired by the complexity and aesthetics of Mexican fabrics. As well as the colours and the great sense of humour that characterises the Mexican culture and people. Establish in Melbourne in 2019 by Lorena Mexican media communicator and fashion marketing grad, she moved to Australia in 2018 with the hope to inspire others with her Mexican background.
Currently, we collaborate with two workshops of Female Mexican Artisans from Mexico City, Oaxaca, Chiapas and Hidalgo.
Our products are one-of-a-kind, co-created, fair trade and curated by Lorena and the artisans to bring you authentic and iconic streetwear to your closet.
Our mission as a committed Artisan-Made Online Store, we go above and beyond to create strong emotional ties with the woman we work with helping them reach economic independence through their craft.
How do we help this woman?
We pay for the materials and work and give them an extra 50% of our profits, by doing this we make sure they are paid fairly and to make sure they can continue to support their families. we work close with them to create our amazing collections.
By Co - collaborating and fair trading we go from beginning to end of process of each piece. we go from design final decisions to pick the fabrics and quality of products we will be using.
All our products are ethically sourced and handmade, we have a limited stock, which means we won't have the same item twice, we will only have similar designs.
Last but not least we try to be environmentally friendly brand read more here
