We needed a change of heart
At Mon Coeur we are dedicated to care for our workers and we only work with suppliers, manufacturing companies and countries where employees are treated with care, respect and professionalism – where there is a minimum wage, where no child is allowed to work or allowed nearby a factory. Apparel workers are among the lowest paid in the world and we committed from the very beginning to solely work with factories in Italy, Spain, France and Portugal where we can be sure it is respected and reinforced. Being part of a sustainable movement is not only about the material, but how the clothes are made and by whom they are made.
