After the birth of her second son Melissa Ramsay, designer and co-founder of Eairth, was inspired to create a line for the younger inhabitants of our planet. Her own story is also very inspiring. She was at the top of her game having designed for brands like Victoria’s Secret, Express, Todd Oldham, Theory, and Levi’s when she packed up everything and surfed off on a voyage of self-discovery. It wasn’t long before her innate desire to design brought her to Eairth, an eco-friendly clothing company based in the Phillippines. Their philosophy of “sustainable luxury” is evident through their exclusive use of natural fibers and dyes. Organic fabrics made from cotton, wool, silk, piña (woven from pineapple leaves) and abaca (a sort of banana plant) are given earth rich tones through sources of natural dyes like tree bark, indigo, and coconut husks. These cozy down-filled nests are the next best thing to being swaddled in the womb! It’s like a cocoon of love gifted straight from Mother Nature.
