DESIGN: Lined purse measuring 18cm x 14cm (when folded). A sturdy YKK zip keeps everything contained and secure.
FABRIC: Outer: 100% organic cotton canvas, spliced with donated fabric saved from landfill. Lining: assorted donated fabrics, so the interior of each purse is a unique surprise!
PRINT:Fariba’s Triangles is one of The Social Outfit’s SS24 ‘Community Prints’. It was created through a series of creative arts workshops exploring the theme of resilience. Children and their families from Granville Public School and Community Hub drew art using textiles and craft materials. The mark making by one of the participants was turned into this funky geometric print developed by Sonya Price-Kelly. Each season we collaborate with artists, designers and our community to create prints exclusive to The Social Outfit. Please note that print placement may vary, as we cut our garments to reduce fabric wastage.

The jacket looks amazing - the fabric is wonderful and it is so perfectly made. It’s also nice to know this is not just some fast fashion, but rather has heart and soul! Love it!"
