This fair trade dress was made through Mata Traders, a Chicago-based fair trade company that strives to provide high fashion, fairly traded clothing and accessories to a growing network of socially conscious consumers. The dress was made exclusively in India by women's cooperatives who pay their employees a living wage, provide safe working conditions, and offer servies like on-site daycare, overtime compensation, and retirement benefits. In addition, Mata Traders supports small fair trade certified cotton family farms that follow environmental standards that restrict the use of agrochemicals and encourage sustainability. Most of the fabrics are handwoven, and are colored by environmentally safe vegetable dyes and traditional print blocking processes.See less »
