Sourcing & Supplier Transparency Information
Beira manufacture clothing while minimising its impact on the planet by sourcing exclusively from waste and using a process called design-led remanufacturing of reverse resources. This essentially, means they buy waste from the luxury industry, and they let that waste fabric (saved from landfill) lead the design. This allows them to extend resource efficiency and resource value. They further extend this to all packaging and shop fit-out. Beira is proud to source all of its raw materials by embracing the circular economy.

Thoughts from Sustainable Stylist Roberta Lee
Beira creates traditional womenswear designs that are made for those who don’t chase fashion trends. The cuts and styles are not mainstream. The styles will typically appeal to women over 35 – although with thoughtful styling I can see some of the pieces looking a bit chicer, like the Marianna jumpsuit for example, if styled with heels and the right accessories could look very elegant indeed.
