A message from the founder

A message from the founder

After a decade in the fashion industry, I have accepted that most sustainable way to shop is second hand... Which is why I decided to manufacture garments that need to be purchased new.

It is my quest to make the most comfortable and flattering under garments that you can afford and be proud to wear without compromising on ethics or sustainability.

Thank you for reading more about the values of Discreture and I hope you will join me on this journey for meaningful change in a dirty industry!

Mission and Certifications

Mission and Certifications

Discreture started in 2021 with the mission of providing modern under garments to women who want their purchases to have a positive impact. We are proud to be:

It starts with Ethically sourced Organic Cotton

It starts with Ethically sourced Organic Cotton

We use A-grade organic cotton seeds, purely sprouted without any harmful chemicals. The seeds are rain fed and grown without pesticides. Once a year the cotton is harvested by hand.

Natural and organic fibers are better for your body and the garment industry workers who are in contact with the raw cotton or final garments.

People are our priority

People are our priority

We work with a farming organization who’s number one focus is on improving the lives in smallholder farm communities in Odisha, India.

The families there live a lot like their ancestors who’ve been on this land for generations. Our goal in this partnership is to make sure they can uphold their generational heritage in the healthiest way with the support they need.

Partnerships that matter

Partnerships that matter

After the organic cotton is purified through the ginning process and spun into fabrics, Discreture garments are assembled in a Fair Trade factory in Kolkata, India.

Skilled workers sew each piece with precision and care. And we can sleep at night knowing our craftspeople get paid fair wages for working reasonable hours in safe conditions.

All of these photos are of the actual people who are a part of Discreture's clean and honest supply chain, taken in January 2023 when Molly and the team visited India. As a brand we are so grateful for the dedication of our teams in India to take good care of people and help protect the planet.

Why Fair Trade?

We believe "Slow Fashion" Is the future. The production of apparel when done conventionally, is incredibly harmful to the people who make it. The garment workers - predominately women – who are working in hazardous conditions, risk physical, verbal and sexual abuse, all for a wage that is below or just making minimum wage, which would rarely be enough to provide for themselves and a family. So when creating a brand who’s ultimate goal is to empower women and provide products for our most delicate areas, the conventional way of doing business just wasn’t going to cut it. Fair Trade Certified products recognize the connectedness of consumers, producers and materials and aims to uplift and empower the livelihood of all three.

Why GOTS?

Everything that touches your intimate areas should be carefully considered. The fabric we use is a blend of at least 92% organic cotton. Limiting the synthetic materials fused into our fabric, makes for a product that’s better for your health and the planet. Our Organic Cotton is made without toxins, persistent pesticides and fertilizers and that the final product YOU get has been Certified Organic through the entire production cycle: starting with raw materials, all the way to garment washes and packaging.  This results in reducing air pollution, toxic dye run off, and other long term harm to our ecosystem, as well as inhumane treatment of animals.
