The story of the #IREMEMBER1136 Lovedesh Tee.
We are the worlds first ethical luxury brand on a mission to protect people and planet. You can learn more about how our sweatshop-free fashion brand is funding some of the most extraordinary human rights projects in the world today.
Starting with the victims of the Rana Plaza factory collapse in 2013, where 1136 garment workers were killed. Leaving thousands injured including our mission to find the body of missing 13-year-old Shameli whose body is yet to be found.
To learn more about the#IRemember1136 project, as well as our work in Palestine, and to support the poorest, and most oppressed across the world, visit our project page.
Made by Lovedesh in collaboration with Bangladeshi female garment workers paid living wages.
The more you buy, the more income they make.
Let’s create a world that is kinder to people, planet and plants. And reminds us all we must work harder to protect human rights of the invisible millions of factory workers making fast fashion.
We are on a mission to create an ethical luxury fashion for purpose collection that is kinder to people, planet and plants. On 8 March 2020, International Women’s Day Lovedesh launched a campaign called “Protect Our Planet” to sell The Lovedesh Tee, a not-for-profit t-shirt. We believe it to be the world’s ‘kindest’ and ‘fairest’. Designed to look good, feel good and deliver good.
The Lovedesh Tee helped to inspire the “Protect Our Planet” POPP Charter. We want to pay living wages to our factory workers and artisans wherever they are. Sales of The Lovedesh Tee also help promote #IRemember1136, a homage to the dead Rana Plaza Factory Workers and fund our fashion webinars. As a luxury brand, we also commit to donating some of our future profits to good causes.
- Help Us Smash Modern Day Slavery (Sweatshops)
- Combat Climate Change & Fast Fashion
- Create Kinder, Fairer Fashion for People, Planet & Plants
An Introduction To The Lovedesh Mission
Learn More On The Who, What, Why & How Of It All
About Us
Meet Founder Yasmin and daughter Amber. Lovedesh is entirely self funded from their own pockets. Read their personal 10 year journey researching poverty, sweatshops and hardship in UK and in Bangladesh. And of why Lovedesh was born as a solution for global poverty as well as an alternative to throw-away fast fashion which often hurts our planet and people.
THE LOVEDESH TEE
THE ‘KINDEST’ AND ‘RAREST’
A 100% organic cotton limited edition t-shirt. The more #IRemember1136 t-shirts sold, the more money the women in a worker owned factory earn. All profits are donated to create a fashion for purpose collection that is kinder for people, planet and plants. We will also be supporting Rana Plaza survivors and relatives of the victims – as well as children impacted by river erosion and many more.
OUR AMBASSADORS
It’s not how one looks, it is what one does.
So we are on a mission to redefine “beauty” and “role models”.
It’s why we invited a cohort of emerging talented citizens from all walks of life from around the world to model for us.
They inspire us and the world around them with the work they are doing to change our society.
OUR VALUES & UN SDGs
It’s not good enough to just “talk the talk”, Lovedesh “walks the walk”. We support the UN Sustainable Goals and have a Modern Day Slavery Statement. Created the Lovedesh POP (Protect Our Planet) Charter. And invite you to watch this short film (36 mins) of how we explore solutions for fashion through research we undertake at grassroots. And by asking the workers in foreign countries how we as a brand can help them.
The Future Of Lovedesh
All Profits From The Lovedesh Tee Will Be Funding The Following To Protect Our Planet
Lovedesh eLuxe Atelier
Our high end handcrafted collection Spring /Summer 2021 capsule collection. Using only sustainable fabrics, repaired and pre-worn items that will be upcycled.
Lovedesh MintVint
Vintage and pre-owned fashion range scouted and selected by us. Core of Lovedesh’s ethical mantra is to create fashion that is kinder to people, planet and plants. What does that mean to us? It means putting into practice message of our mantra.
Seen here are are Yasmin & Amber in their hotel in Dhaka, Bangladesh, October 2019, just before they headed out to pitch the Lovedesh Luxe Dawat concept to Bangladesh’s Ministry Of Civil Aviation & Tourism. Hurrah – it worked as they landed sponsorship. Both dresses were bought from a charity shop. The pink dress is from Scope and the other from a charity shop somewhere in London. We now have an array of stylish items we plan to re-sell for clients who do not have time to visit and can rely on us to style them without breaking the bank or the planet.
Lovedesh Valise
We created our brand to boost the incomes of sole traders and family owned micro businesses struggling to stay alive. When we travel in the UK or abroad, we scout out some of the best fashion, beauty and homeware products we spot during out time away from home. Especially from small independent traders around the world selling organic, handcrafted accessories, jewellery, artefacts, food items and natural beauty products – although these are not always sustainable. Check out more on Lovedesh News on why we do this.
Lovedesh Merch Shop
Lovedesh® Merch is proud to present a range of prints designed by Yasmin & Amber. To quickly help fund our work to combat sweatshops and climate change.
