Stella Sustains

Just like many good brands, Stella constantly finds ways to sustain my interest and gives me more reasons to appreciate this brand even more.

It's been almost a decade since I discovered this in-house fashion brand of Robinsons Department Store. Back then, their designs have caught my eye. The designer of this brand has a good eye for fabrics, prints and details - elements that define a good piece of clothing.

Through the years, they've constantly innovated their designs. They've even upped their fashion ante by featuring collaborations with indie brands like KT Creations and Mode De Vie. 

Now, they've introduced another relevant and fashionable concept - Sustainable Fashion.

Recently, they launched a collection of clothes that use flour sacks - or katsa - as material for their clothing. They took sacks from their own brand (URC is part of the Gokongwei group, just like RDS), as well as other competing flour brands. This added colour and variety to the desings.

The collection was made-up of dresses, pants and blouses, each having its own character because of the varied materials used.

From the collection, there were 3 items that ended up in my basked, and in Ate Bullet's closet.  There was a peplum top, culottes, and this tiered summer dress.

Sustainable fashion is so on-trend!
