“Fleurs a Vivre” Hand Cut & Sewn Byas & Leon Original
$67.90
Celebrating 10 years of Byas & Leon, it is our pleasure to introduce one of two hand cut & sewn shirts, this one being named “Fleurs a Vivre” (“flowers to live by”)
Featuring a lightweight 100% rayon poplin fabric with an ultra soft feel, and small flowers of different types all throughout. Hand cut & sewn by a small tailoring shop in Cap Haïtien, Haiti, led by longtime craftswoman Josie :)
This was Byas & Leon’s original mission when we started in 2012, to connect with grass roots tailors of our native Haiti and pay them better than a so-called “living wage” - giving them a pathway towards building more prosperous lives with.
We are staunchly anti sweatshop, inhumane working conditions and hours, etc - our tailors are everyday mothers and fathers that give an honest day’s work and go home to their families. All while navigating Haiti’s volatile socio-political climate. So please note that each shirt will be slightly different - giving them *more character, not less. Every single one is made with love though, and the hope for a better life, a better future. Available now while quantities of this small batch last :)
Jade is 5’7 and is of slim build, wearing a size S. Reece is 6’0 and is of athletic build, wearing a size L. The shirt is designed for a roomy/airy fit. Wash in Cold Water, Air Dry. You may dry clean as well.
