Nordstrom + Piece & Co.
03.09.15
Today is the official launch of Nordstrom + Piece & Co. collection, a capsule group of apparel and accessories created with eight brands - Alice + Olivia, Current/Elliott, DVF, Joie, Rebecca Minkoff, Theory, The Honest Company, and Tory Burch.
Piece & Co. is an incredible concept founded in 2011 by Kathleen Wright as it works to provide sustainable employment opportunities to female artisans, and has created thousands of jobs for women in more than 30 countries by connecting their craft with brands. With one order, between 75 and 100 artisans can be employed for up to three months.
Each brand worked closely with Piece & Co. to source handmade materials and fabrics from artisans around the world – from Vietnam, Mexico, India, Zambia, to name a few – and through this project alone were able to create more than 5,000 jobs.
The Nordstrom + Piece & Co. collection includes:
DVF’s iconic wrap dress made with hand-printed indigo batik.
Alice + Olivia’s A-line dress in an artisan-made bold blue and white loom-woven fabric, made in a weaving cooperative in India.
Rebecca Minkoff’s ‘Mini MAC’ cross-body in cognac leather accented with backstrap loom fabric, an ancient weave technique from Vietnam.
Tory Burch’s crackle printed canvas separates made of hand-painted fabric from Zambia.
The Honest Company’s nursing scarves made from hand-woven stripe and chambray designs and silk-screen printed fabrics from Maheshwar and Jodhpur, India.
Theory’s tunics and city shorts in fatigue and block prints from India that are created using a hand-carved wooden stamp.
Current/Elliott’s prep school shirts in black & white ikat or floral block prints made in India.
Joie’s blue and white ikat on casual summer staples: jumper, shorts and a sleeveless dress.
Prices range from $59.95 for a nursing scarf to $495 for a jacket.
The collection is available online and in select Nordstrom stores such as South Coast Plaza and Fashion Island.
