Sustainability Report

At Ethérnique, sustainability is not a seasonal trend — it is the foundation of everything we create. In an era where fashion has become synonymous with excess and disposability, we choose a quieter path: one that values the planet, honors the hands behind the work, and redefines luxury through mindfulness.


The current fashion system, particularly fast fashion, comes at a staggering cost — one we no longer wish to ignore. Which is why the Fashion Must Change. The global fashion industry is responsible for up to 10% of annual carbon emissions. Every year, the world produces over 100 billion garments, yet nearly 92 million tonnes of garments end up in landfills. Up to 35% of microplastics in the ocean come from synthetic textiles, which can take around 200 years to decompose.


We’re continuously learning, evolving, and pushing ourselves to do better. Every season, every collection, is unique and exclusive and a new opportunity to refine our choices and deepen our impact.


Our Approach to Sustainability


Sustainable Materials

We use only organic, natural, or low-impact textiles — materials that are kind to the earth and the skin. Our sourcing prioritizes durability, biodegradability, and reduced carbon emission.


 

Small-Batch Production

We operate through a slow, small-batch model. We don’t produce at breakneck speed. Each collection is crafted in limited quantities, allowing us to minimize overproduction, avoid waste, and maintain the integrity of design.



Ethical Craftsmanship

We support ethical craftsmanship and collaborate with small-scale workshops across India, ensuring fair wages, safe working conditions, and long-term partnerships. Each garment is made by human hands — with heritage, care, and quiet mastery.



Planet-Conscious Packaging

Our packaging is designed with a commitment to lower or near-zero plastic . We use recyclable corrugated boxes and fabric-based wrapping to reduce landfill contribution and encourage reuse.



Our Living Commitment

Sustainability at Ethérnique is not a checklist — it’s a journey. We are continuously learning, refining, and deepening our efforts, because true responsibility evolves with awareness.


 

Our Future Pledges

As we grow, we are committed to:

• Launching a  take-back program

• Increasing supply chain transparency and traceability

• Expanding use of certified regenerative and recycled fabrics

• Minimizing energy and water consumption across the value chain


 

At Ethérnique, we believe the future of fashion lies in care — not consumption. And we invite you to walk that path with us, and choose fashion that values the Earth as much as aesthetics. We believe, true luxury is about intention — not excess. Because when fashion is created thoughtfully, it doesn’t just look beautiful — it means something.
