Small-batch linen production

We don't mass produce our garments - Pyne & Smith dresses are made in small batches (so they do sell out) so that we don’t make more dresses than we sell - none of our garments end up in landfill sites.

Uses European flax linen

We chose to use a natural fiber material, Linen, which uses several times less water (it’s estimated to use 5-20 times less than water, depending on the processes used.) The production of Linen is more laborious and time consuming than many other fabrics, but much kinder to our planet.

Local sewing in Los Angeles

After our Linen is cut into dresses, the dresses are sent to our seamstresses in Los Angeles. (We use a local, family run, high quality production studio for our production.)

Reuses linen offcuts

We collect the Linen offcuts from the cutting process, and those scraps are either sent to crafters, or to our local textile recycling center where they shred the scraps and re-purpose them into car seat covers.

Uses responsible packaging

Our packaging is environmentally responsible, both compostable and recycled.
