It shows the team at MILA, a small fairtrade, GOTS certified factory in Southern India who work with BWS brand Project Pico. The factory provides a safe, worker friendly environment. Employees are insured, paid the Living Wage and have access to pensions and healthcare.
Many of the brands we work with make their garments in factories audited by the Fairwear Foundation. Level Collective for example have their factories audited daily, while Idioma works with suppliers that focus on improving practice in a few select factories.
This Sunday marks the tragedy of the preventable collapse of Rana Plaza, a fast fashion factory in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Over 1,130 people died and a further 2500 were injured. The root cause was identified as graft (making shortcuts for personal gain) and corruption.
By supporting Brothers We Stand and the brands we work with, you’re taking a stand against greed and for the global brothers and sisters who make our clothes.
Other ways to make your voice heard this week include joining in with Fashion Revolution Week and the programme of events or adding your sustainable style story to the map.
This weekend is The Big One, a climate protest at Westminster from Friday - Monday. Everyone’s invited to ‘unite to survive’. The aim is to get the attention of the government rather than cause civil disruption so take your mates and party shoes rather than your lawyer’s number.

September 20th was the start of Climate Strike. Business could not continue as usual that day, as often businesses and lifestyles have damaged the planet and set a bleak future for the next generation. These protests consisted mostly of children and teenagers. For them, this was a continuation of the Fridays for Future movement, where children have been striking on Fridays to call on governments to act against Climate Change. This generation has been crying out for the irresponsible habits that damage our planet to stop.
Ultimately most pollution output is coming from businesses, corporations and governments.
At Brothers We Stand we want to be part of re-imagining how the fashion industry operates. We are a platform that supports you to purchase less, but better fashion:
- Clothes made largely if not fully from either natural fibres or recycled materials.
- Fibres that have been grown organically, so harmful pesticides don’t enter water supplies or make farmers sick.
- Factories that are powered by renewable energy.
- Factories that recycle the chemicals used in dyeing or processing fabrics, so those chemicals don’t enter the rivers and waterways
- Materials that don’t harm animals or are vegan.
- Clothes that are made to last and be enjoyed for many years.
Brothers We Stand is a platform to support you to consume clothing in a way that’s in-step with our natural environment. As you join with us and others doing business differently, we become a force to be reckoned with, that other businesses and politicians have to take notice of.

I have recently been inspired by the design philosophy of Dieter Rams, the pioneering German product designer. With a lifetime of trailblazing work behind him, Rams has come to the firm conclusion that the next generation needs to lead a design revolution centred around the concept of “Less. And better.”
As head of design at Braun, the German electronics manufacturer, Rams is credited with playing a major role in developing consumer product design as we know it today. His focus on simplicity and elegance can clearly be seen in many of the products we use today.
Ten principles of good design by Dieter Rams
Rams believes we need another design revolution today. For Rams the time for thoughtless design and thoughtless consumption is over, “What we need today is a fundamental re-thinking. Not just in design, but in general. Back to basics. Less. And Better.”
Environmental impact and longevity of products have always been a concern for Rams. But as Rams has reflected on the challenges facing society today, it appears these principles have come to the fore.
‘Rams’, a new film by documentary filmmaker Gary Huswitt, gives a privledged insight into the designers thinking. At 86 years of age Dieter Rams is meditative and feels regret for the way consumerism, capitalism and materialism have played out. He looks back on his career with some regret. "If I had to do it over again, I would not want to be a designer," he's said. "There are too many unnecessary products in this world."
In the same way that Rams simplified the cluttered visual language of product design, today he lays down a challenge for the next generation to simplify the way we consume products. I’d like Brothers We Stand to be a platform that helps you adopt a “Less. And better” approach to your wardrobe. Brothers We Stand is a place to find good quality clothes that are ethically produced and designed to please you for many years.

This week, we're showing our “I Made Your Clothes” installation at the Amnesty International headquarters in Shoreditch. The installation features a handpainted portrait of a female worker at the factory in Tirupur, southern India, where our Brothers We Stand logo t-shirts are made.
The installation aims to express the reality that behind every garment is the person, usually a women, who made it.
Last Friday MP’s challenged high street stores to minimise their environmental footprint and ensure their supply chains are ethical. I’m pleased we can show our installation at Amnesty and draw attention to the human rights dimension of this issue.
The installation provides our answer to the question, “Who made my clothes?”.
The installation provides our answer to the question, “Who made my clothes?”. This question has been at the centre of the global Fashion Revolution campaign, which now has an active presence in over 100 countries. In 2017, over 100,000 people used social media to ask the brands they wear, “#whomademyclothes?”.
Hanging from the installation are cards that detail the processes involved in producing the Brothers We Stand branded t-shirts. The first step is the growing of organic cotton in the Ahmedebad region of western India, while the t-shirts themselves are cut and sewn in Tirupur by a SA-8000 certified supplier.
If you would like to see the installation please come to the Ethical Consumer 2018 conference on Friday 12th October at Amnesty International HQ. The conference will discuss innovations in ethical consumption and the ways that they are transforming the role of the consumer.
Big thank you to the good folk at Sparks Studio who conceived and designed this installation for us.

Last night, I attended the launch of streetwear gatekeepers Highsnobiety’s first book launch. It got me thinking about the ways in which the culture of early streetwear parallels today’s ethical fashion movement.
At their purest, streetwear movements have allowed participants to express what they believe through what they wear. As Highsnobiety editor Jian put it, “There is a reverence for brands, designers and the stories behind products. That has come from decades of communities both online and offline. Of people united by a shared love of product...There’s always been people who are galvanized by a shared love of things." The relaxed look of 70's skatewear, for example, was a rebellion against the overly conservative norms of the 60's.
The ethical fashion movement allows those of us who are frustrated with society's lack of response to climate change and human exploitation to take back a degree of control on how our clothes are made. Individually we may not have the power to change the entire system but the decision to wear ethically-minded brands is a way for us to outwardly express our disquiet in the hopes of inspiring a more conscious society across the board.
In recent years the commercialisation of streetwear has led some to say it has lost its edge. Wearing skatewear today is less about making a rebel statement and more about fitting in with the crowd. Go to a skatepark and you'll see that some of that 90's self expression seems to have been lost in a sea of Supreme and Dickies t-shirts.
Skate culture went mainstream and it's an encouraging thought to think that the ethical fashion movement could do too. As the movement grows we must ensure it stays true to its values.

Photo and video documentation follow Burks’ designs from their inception on draftpaper straight through to the production of a physical object. The inclusion of this material, along with the visibility of the Sengalese craftspeople actually working in the museum, provided commentary on specificity in a global age. Confronted with a transparent take on the realities of manufacturing - one of open and attentive collaboration - the audience might see the possibility of becoming more interested in the processes that shape what they buy.”

]]>Mbuki Mvuki is an idiom from the Bantu people of Africa, literally meaning "to shake off your clothes to dance more freely".
Idioma designer, Seth Bank’s print is inspired by the way Bantu artists depict movement, through the use of simple outlined figures. Whilst working on his interpretation Seth became frustrated as he felt he wasn’t capturing the essence of "Mbuki Mvuki". This led to a change of medium, "I was drawing again and again the same shapes and getting a little frustrated with the permanent line of my pen, it just wasn’t going in the right direction. I wanted to free things up a little and so I started making shapes, cutting them out of paper. A cut-out was made for each shape, they were put together and the design came into focus."

I love the questions that cultural theorist Daniel Bruggeman's video provokes. Is a more human approach to fashion possible? Can we engage with fashion in a more fulfilling manner?
A while back, IKEA’s Chief Sustainability Officer, Steve Howard, spoke at a climate conference to explain how Western society is reaching ‘Peak Stuff.’ The average consumer’s home, bulging with all the materials and goods it needs, has reached tipping point. While our hunger for meaning and purpose remains, we are losing our appetite for buying more and more things.
Can the fashion industry respond to these changing tastes with a richer, more satisfying experience? Can it address our deeper human needs such as the desire to be part of something bigger than ourselves or to find meaning?
Bruggeman suggests that by engaging with the power of fashion to create sustainable livelihoods we could enjoy a more gratifying experience. By seeking out clothes that have been ethically and sustainably produced, we could become active participants in the creation of a fashion industry that we actually believe in, and perhaps this agency, and the unadultered satisfaction that would accompany it, could as Bruggeman puts it, come to be known as the “new luxury”.
What would a more human and engaged approach to fashion look like to you? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments section below.

Prama Bhardwaj founded sourcing company Mantis World in 1999 and has supplied key retailers such as Harvey Nichols, Harrods and Urban Outfitters amongst many others. Long before sustainability was in vogue, Bhardwaj has been a vocal advocate of sustainable practices and she sits on the board of NGO’s Ethical Fashion Forum and Textile Exchange.
Matt Peters also comes from a garment sourcing background. Much of his work has been in the music industry and he has helped iconic bands such as Wu Tang Clan, Odd Future, Nirvana and Led Zeppelin find suppliers to produce their clothing merchandise.
On his motivation for joining forces with Bhardwaj to launch the brand Peters shares, “re.sustain was born of frustration. My background is manufacturing for brands and other clients. I came up with the idea to do a brand because I couldn’t convince some clients to add a sustainable angle to their brand or orders. Luxury brands with their huge margins could easily incorporate sustainability without any argument about costs. It’s appalling that they don’t."

"Spending an afternoon trying on clothes normally strikes me as about as enjoyable as a night out with Ukip’s youth wing… When my Guardian colleagues asked me to do a photoshoot as a gay man who doesn’t exude style, I was a bit bemused. But, weirdly, I quite enjoyed wearing clothes that looked good and fit me. I doubt I will be crowned Britain’s most stylish man any time soon. But there’s nothing wrong with priding yourself on how you look; it turns out it doesn’t make you some superficial bourgeois traitor. Don’t expect me to start embracing Gucci socialism, but maybe I’ll stop treating shopping as a slightly less enjoyable exercise than dental surgery. You can want to change the world without looking like a dishevelled paper boy."

The Brothers We Stand T-Shirt Supply Chain
1. Sowing and harvesting
Region: Ahmedebad, western India
The first step in making our T-shirts is to grow cotton for the fabric.
Farmers in the region of Ahmedebad, western India, sow organic cotton seeds in the ground. Our supplier Earth Positive has worked with these farmers for more than a decade, and has come to know them and their families well.
It’s uplifting to see the way they farm. These farmers don’t use pesticides, which can contaminate water sources. Instead, they use traditional methods to manage soil and to control pests and weeds. These enhance the lush biodiversity of plants, worms, insects and birds.
Ultimately, the monsoon rain ensures success. Our farmers get enough natural rainfall, at just the right time in the cycle, to eliminate the need for artificial irrigation. This saves a huge amount of water and reduces the carbon footprint.
The cotton plants grow into green, bushy shrubs, about a metre tall, with pink and cream flowers. Once pollinated, these drop off and are replaced with “fruit” – green pods, known as cotton bolls. As the boll ripens, moist fibres grow and push out, splitting the boll to allow fluffy white cotton – like candy floss – to emerge.
Five or six months after sowing seed, the farmers harvest this cotton by hand.
2. Ginning
Region: Ahmedebad, western India
Ginning is the process of removing seeds, lint and debris from the cotton boll (the fluffy white bit).
For centuries in the Indian subcontinent, workers have used handheld rollers to clean up cotton bolls. The process became mechanised in 1793 when US inventor Eli Whitney came up with the “cotton gin”, which took its name from the steam engine that drove the machine.
Modern-day ginning involves putting the cotton through dryers to reduce moisture. Operators then use mechanical cleaning equipment to remove seeds, burrs, stems, leaves and other foreign matter. This helps to facilitate processing and improve the quality of the cotton fibre.
Labourers compress the cleaned cotton fibres into blocks, and grade them according to quality. The best quality bales can be used for fine fabric. Lower quality bales are used to stuff mattresses. Nothing is wasted – even the leftover cotton seeds go to make cotton oil and cattle feed.
Many of the farm labourers who grow and harvest the cotton bolls also work as ginners, maintaining and repairing the machinery. As ginning is seasonal work, this system provides labourers with continuous employment over several months.
3. Spinning
Region: Tirupur, southern India
From Ahmedebad, the clean, organic cotton fibre is transported thousands of miles to Tirupur, an industrial city in the state of Tamil Nadu. There, it’s turned into T-shirts.
We work with the supplier Earth Positive, which pioneered the model for a “green supply chain” – taking organic cotton through spinning, fabric production, dyeing and wet processing to final manufacturing and distribution. In Tirupur, it has a long-term relationship, based on shared values, with a firm that operates a large facility. Different units spin, knit and dye fabric. Powered entirely by renewable energy, and audited by the Fair Wear Foundation, these units use sophisticated automated machines, which helps to reduce energy consumption.
A spinning mill, which takes some of its energy from on-site solar panels, spins the cotton fibre into yarn. One machine is like a giant vacuum cleaner. It strips down the bales of fibre, enabling cotton to be sucked away, screened and cleaned further. Another machine makes a continuum of cotton sausages, each about an inch wide. These are coiled into barrels, then are stretched and wound. This makes the fibre thinner and stronger. The end result is very high quality cotton yarn, which can be knitted into textile fabric.
4. Knitting
Region: Tirupur, India
Another of the facility’s units is dedicated to knitting.
Here, workers operate machines that combine cotton from dozens of reels of thread to make fabric. Earth Positive has known many of these people for more than a decade, since first starting to work with this producer. Five years ago, the producer relocated to the brand new, out-of-town building it now uses in Tirupur. Brothers We Stand is proud to say that it’s one of the most modern garment factories in the whole of Asia.
Brothers We Stand T-shirts are made from grey melange 100% cotton fabric, made of melange yarns. (The word melange is taken from the French “to mix”.) To make these, our cotton fibres are dyed in three different shades and blended in the “blow room”, where different machines refine the cotton.
The fibres are spun into yarn, and this yarn is fed into high-tech knitting machines. Being circular, these machines can create tubular lengths of fabric. They have a multitude of bobbins, wound with organic cotton yarn. They look a little like Daleks! As fabric is knitted from the cotton yarn, it is stored on giant rolls.
5. Cutting and sewing
Region: Tirupur, India
The organic cotton fibre for our T-shirts is processed in Tirapur - and our T-shirts are manufactured here, too. The facility Earth Positive uses produces 30% more electricity than it consumes, and sells the surplus into a grid. Electricity is produced 100% renewably, through wind turbines and solar panels.
Earth Positive is keen to improve labour standards. It’s doing this by helping to organise and educate the workforce that makes our T-shirts. For example, Earth Positive has facilitated open elections to a number of workers’ committees, enabling workers to contribute their views. Internal initiatives for improvement include a scheme to provide personal hygiene products to female workers who could not otherwise afford this “luxury”. The facility is SA-8000 certified, working to develop, maintain and apply socially acceptable practices in the workplace. It also works to raise awareness among managers about labour standards and communication.
To make up our T-shirts, workers use patterns to cut fabric (both manually and with the use of computers) then hand-sew these elements. Now nearly ready to wear, our T-shirts are shipped from the Tamil Nadu port of Tuticorin, via Colombo, to Felixstone. This journey takes nearly a month.
6. Printing
Region: Somerset, UK
When they arrive in the UK, our organic cotton T-shirts go to Frome-based screen printers I Dress Myself, to be printed.
This company specialises in ethical screen printing, using only water-based textile Permaset Aqua inks – the most environmentally friendly inks on the market, passing the OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Class 1 test (an independent testing and certification system for textile products) with 60% to spare!
I Dress Myself prints the two colours of our designs on a screen printing carousel, with a “flash cure” unit to dry the T-shirts between prints. A tunnel dryer with quartz elements then dries and cures the inks to make them washfast. The inks on our T-shirts contain no animal-derived ingredients and aren’t tested on animals – so they’re completely vegan. Some emulsions used to create T-shirt stencils contain gelatin. We’re happy to say that ours don’t.
Equally importantly, the inks on our T-shirts are eco-friendly. They contain no ozone-depleting chemicals, aromatic hydrocarbons or volatile solvents. Plastisol inks and some water-based inks require solvents to clean down the screens: these go down the drain, damaging aquatic life. I Dress Myself uses only water to wash inks from the screen, making it an eco-friendly system all round.

]]>Loïc Schwaller: I'm 28 years old, I'm French and I live in Amsterdam. My formation is in mathematics, but I've always been interested in graphic design and arts in general. For about a year or so, I've been teaching myself how to screen print. I really loved it from the beginning and started printing loads of t-shirts. Last September I created 'loackme' to sell them so that I would not drown in clothing.
BWS: What inspired the Geometric Grid print?
LS: The initial design of Geometric Grid was realised with tape directly on the screen. I tried to think as little as possible and just let each cell of the grid design itself under my hands. It was really a spur-of-the-moment process inspired by my love for simple geometric shapes.
BWS: Where do you do the designing and screenprinting? What equipment do you use?
LS: The whole process happens in my apartment. I usually use my laptop to create the design, laying on the coach or sitting at my desk. Once I’m satisfied with a design, I transform my bathroom into a dark room to put it on a screen with a homemade exposure unit. For the actual printing, it involves going back and forth between the workshop I’ve set up in the spare bedroom and the bathroom to clean up the screens and the tools. I use a printing press that I’ve made out of wood with my partner.
'The printing involves going back and forth between the workshop I’ve set up in the spare bedroom and the bathroom to clean up the screens and the tools.'
BWS: Why did you choose to use organic cotton and water based inks?
LS: I choose to print in an environment-friendly and organic way because it was important for me. I think that as soon as you manufacture a product, you have a responsibility to do it in a way that does not damage the environment and with respect for all the people involved in the process.
BWS: How would you like your t-shirts to make people feel?
LS: I guess I would like my t-shirts to make people feel like themselves. T-shirts are very personal pieces of clothing and are often used to make unspoken statements. I would be deeply satisfied if people can express who they are through my t-shirts because I definitely put a lot of myself in these designs. And of course, I hope they also feel stylish while doing so!
