Kalima: Sustainability Values

Our business vision is to provide customers with the ideal blend of fashion, quality, price, and sustainability. We firmly believe that sustainable fashion should be accessible to all.

While we’ve made significant strides, there’s still much more work to be done. The industry must reduce its environmental impact, improve social outcomes, and create a better fashion system. Transparency is key as we continue on this journey.

1. Zero-Waste Design

  • Kalima optimizes fabric usage by fully utilizing the fabric width, significantly reducing material wastage.

2. Creative Use of Remnants

  • Leftover fabric remnants are repurposed into new collections, ensuring nothing goes to waste.

3. Seasonal and Responsible Collections

  • With only two collections a year, Kalima minimizes overproduction and leftover stock.

4. Slow Fashion Philosophy

  • By keeping minimal stock and tailoring garments per order, Kalima champions a more sustainable, demand-driven approach to fashion.

5. Customizable Lengths

  • Offering length customization reduces the need for unnecessary alterations, aligning with a zero-waste ethos.

6. In-House Production

  • • All processes are carried out in-house, reducing reliance on external logistics and minimizing carbon footprint.

7. Ethical Employment Practices

  • • Kalima employs women and ensures they are paid above minimum wages, empowering them through fair and meaningful work.
