THE BRAND: Up we go apparel is an up-cycled fashion boutique passionate about sustainability in the fashion world and the reduction of clothing waste. Second to the oil industry, the clothing and textile industry is the largest polluter in the world. That being said, our mission is to deliver beautiful garments through innovative design after curating vintage, worn or damaged clothing to create pieces that are trendy and new, all without putting the environment at risk. We believe that it is our responsibility to redefine the fashion industry by abolishing harmful sourcing methods with our pursuit of an eco-friendly life without sacrificing style.
THE CREATOR: Up We Go apparel was founded by Zoe Bautista in 2019. After attending the San Francisco Community Fashion Week's Future of Fashion conference, it was brought to her attention the amount of harm that the fashion industry has caused to the environment. She then knew that there was something she could do to help the earth and still follow her passion of clothing design. The Up We Go apparel brand was then conceived, as a way to allow others to have the option of stylish sustainable fashions whereas other brands have failed to do so for centuries. Zoe is dedicated to upholding and practicing sustainable standards with every collection the brand introduces and is excited to introduce the future of Upcycling. |
