Ethical Fashion Designer Spotlight #5: Moselle
The fifth incredible label to get the spotlight is the wonderful Moselle. Remember – all these labels we have shined the spotlight on will be on show during the Fair Trade High Tea in the Ethical Fashion Showcase!
Moselle Clothing was founded by Daniel and Catrina Pennington with the unique purpose of releasing women from slavery. This is accomplished by employing Thai women formerly enslaved or considered “at risk” of being trafficked.
Moselle Clothing works directly with Destiny Rescue, a not-for-profit organisation focusing on rescuing children from sexual slavery, in Chiang Rai, Thailand. At the Destiny Rescue production house the women are trained and employed in a safe environment. They receive above and beyond the average pay, along with other benefits. Moselle Clothing are currently pursuing formal fair trade certification for the production house.
Using contemporary clothing as its vehicle, Moselle Clothing aims to bring steady employment and a better way of life for all Destiny Rescue women. Visit moselleclothing.com for more information
