Back to Craftsmanship
Environmental awareness must be at the service of desirability and creativity, which is why we design pieces that combine durability and elegance.
Olistic the Label collaborates with talented women to create unique handmade embroideries. A true treasure of Portugal, this heritage needs to be preserved. Inspired by nature, the sketched patterns come to life on silky fabrics. Olistic is committed to promoting this know-how and safeguarding the traditional art of embroidery.
Olistic envisions “slow” fashion through an ethical manufacturing process where each step is closely controlled. We value human work and want to break away from the hectic pace of the fashion industry. Olistic offers its artisans more time and freedom to create each garment. Due to the organic nature of the fabric and the hand-made construction, each of our pieces is unique.
Olistic surrounds itself with trusted partners who share our values, our work ethic and our respect for the environment.

Social impact
We source our peace silk from India to support local communities and organic sericulture. This vegan production method requires artisanal know-how, such as the delicate hand-piercing of the cocoons. By gaining financial independence through this activity, Indian craftswomen regain confidence in themselves and in the future. Olistic allows them to build a better life for themselves and their families.
Female emancipation and well-being are at the heart of Olistic's concerns, created by and for women. Instilling economic momentum in the region also helps preserve the ancestral tradition of Ahimsa peace silk to perpetuate this precious know-how.
More than just a piece of clothing, the Olistic wardrobe is a promise that listens to life.

Ethical production
Olistic The Label is a French brand that supports innovative and sustainable European manufacturing by producing its collections in the north of Portugal. The pieces are carefully crafted in a sewing workshop ensuring high-end finishes for a garment of impeccable quality.
We only work with family-run workshops that offer fair wages and good working conditions. Our partners are visited regularly and we know all the seamstresses who design the pieces in our collections.
Portugal has become our second family.

Traceability
In order to guarantee the excellence and traceability of our collections, we offer pieces in limited quantities and have few stocks. The Olistic journey begins in India where we discovered the tradition of peace silk and continues in Portugal in a family workshop. We took a year to find these trusted partners and now we can easily trace our entire supply chain.
We know every person working in our socially responsible workshops. We visit them regularly to monitor our manufacturing processes and maintain excellent relationships with our suppliers. Olistic is a whole, where each element has its importance for a perfect harmony. It is essential for us to know where and how our collections are designed in order to ensure ethical production and control our carbon footprint.
This traceability allows us to offer you sustainable fashion that creates a positive impact in complete transparency.
