Upė flows like the rivers of the Baltics with her stretchy rib pattern and maxi dress style. With a knee-height slit on one side and a soft, ever-so-flattering fit, Upė's a go-to knit dress whatever the season.
Material
100% Fair Trade Cotton
UPĖ DRESS IS ALL ABOUT THE LITTLE THINGS.
And by “little” we mean the small batches her sustainable cotton yarn is produced in at our partner factory.
Production
For this knit we partnered up with a family-run knitwear factory in Šiauliai, a small town in Northern Lithuania. The owner of the factory is Mrs. Zina who founded the company over 30 years ago. Growing up she always dreamt of becoming an orchestra conductor, but running a factory as beautifully as she does might not be that far off. Today Mrs. Zina employs over 20 women from the local community who all refer to her as a mother figure. All her employees earn a living wage and are entitled to 4 weeks of annual paid leave, 24 months of paid maternity leave and paid sick leave.
