they use biodegradable milky paper and
their name and wash labels are made of
recycled polyester.

back to nature because every year 10 billion trees
disappear. The consequences are disastrous for humanity
, animals and the planet. (TREES OF ALL) help
companies reduce their footprint by planting a tree for
every sold product and that’s where ‘neeve’ decided to
join in wholeheartedly and ( PLANT A TREE FOR

sustainable as possible and use a bike courier whenever
they can and ship their garments in packaging that fits.

products with as little impact on the environment as
possible like Items from the new collections are mixed
with items from previous collections to show that you
don’t have to buy a completely new wardrobe every
season.
