Ethical Fashion

Tam & Rob Spring 2007 CollectionTam & Rob is a new London based ethical fashion clothing company for women. It is founded and run by two Lucy's who have been friends since school. Tam, a St Martin's fashion graduate, is the designer, and Rob runs the business side of their venture.

Taking inspiration from a variety of retro style ranging from 40's flapper through new romantic to 90's chelsea girl, the Tam & Rob Spring 07 collection consists of reasonably priced, simply elegant, stylish and well crafted pieces. All designs are made in IFAT accredited factories in India & Nepal from certified (by SKAL and Fairtrade Foundation) fair trade and organic cotton.

In their own words:

"Tam & Rob is a fairtrade clothing company for women who want ethical clothing that is designed to be trend led and individual... ...Our formula is pretty simple: fashionable, tailored womenswear that uses organic and fairtrade cotton. We make sure that all our producers are paid a fair wage and treated well, and we also offset all our carbon emissions, donate 10% of our profits to charity and generally make sure we treat our customers and suppliers with respect."
