"I bought this salmon pink shirt as a present for my father and it’s been a great success. He loved the fit and the feel and was fascinated by the story the shirt told."
Lucy

This organic pink shirt has been created from 100% sustainable cotton fabric called khadi by Where Does It Come From? The shirt design is straight and classic so can be worn loose or tucked in, while the natural fabric flows and drapes beautifully.

These shirts are eco-friendly – You can explore the traditional khadi processes used, which are much kinder to the environment. Their dyeing process uses a fifth of the water normally required and the hand spinning and hand weaving are virtually carbon free.

Hand-woven fabrics are naturally more breathable so you will find your organic pink shirt cool in summer and warm in winter – a perfect all-season wardrobe staple.

Where Does it Come From? shirts are ethical – the fabrics are created by co-operatives which are run according to the principles set down by Mahatma Gandhi as part of his vision to empower rural people in India. They also work with artisan groups and social enterprises in the dyeing, printing and tailoring of these shirts.

You can explore how your organic pink shirt was made and who was involved – each shirt has a code on the label which unlocks its garment story.

Reviews:

"An excellent quality garment. The fabric is lightweight, but not in the least flimsy; indeed, the cotton has the feel/look of linen. The workmanship is superb, especially the stitching and the attention to detail. All lines of stitching meet exactly where they should, and there are no loose threads. I bought it for myself, hoping that the small wouldn’t be too skimpy – and it’s a perfect fit as a comfortable ‘blouse’. (I’m 35in B, 28in W, 36in H with square shoulders.) I like particularly the deep hem; not only does this mean it will launder more easily, but coupled with the straight-up-and-down style means it will hang nicely/look good when untucked. I look forward to the white colour being in stock in small. Thank goodness I read the Guardian (with the eco supplement) that day!"

Girls' Bralettes:

We feel that there isn’t a set size for bodies at different ages, and we don’t want to put any additional pressure on young girls, so our sizing looks a little different. We have 4 sizes, all named after Ugandan towns! We suggest using band width as a starting point, although do get in touch if you have any specific sizing questions.
