Madame Melon, We Are Innia, The Little Masters, Mamamushi, Mapache Shoes: discover 5 eco-responsible brands to shop online, or in Barcelona and Paris.
Mrs. Melon
Madame Melon Paris was born over 10 years ago from the mind of Melody Besnard, a graduate of the Lisaa Paris fashion school and the Barcelona School of Fine Arts. Inspired by her travels around the world, Melody wanted to honor the craftsmanship and traditions of the locals she encountered in her creations. Argentina, India, Vietnam, Senegal, Morocco, Barcelona: all of Madame Melon's clothing, accessories, and jewelry collections are inspired by the destinations and manufacturing techniques of the countries she has visited. You can thus find in her creations kilim fabrics from Morocco, wax from Senegal, huipils from Guatemala, Andean aguayos, and even Argentine puyos, all hand-woven. But the desire to honor these cultures doesn't stop there: to create her collections, Madame Melon works with artisans, women's cooperatives, and social associations to promote ethical work that serves the local community. The brand is also committed to an eco-responsible creation process with the use of short-circuit raw materials and upcycling.
