Whats New From Us

 

At Madia Matilda we create timeless pieces centred on quality and longevity.

Our styles are brought to life by carefully selected materials that create individuality and vintage prints. We value the versatility of natural fibres and are introducing a line of T-Shirts and knit along side our upcycled collections

Furthermore, we have been working collectively with scap (Sustainable Clothing Action Plan) since 2013,  to reduce the carbon, water and waste footprint of clothing sold in the UK by 2020.

This work has informed our efforts to question where and how the raw materials we use are grown and produced, enabling us to make more considered choices

We know we will face many challenges during this journey.  we are committed to change and do better, so each year, we will share our progress towards our goals.

Christmas Gift Shopping

 

Due to the current lockdown situation, most shops are currently shut and who knows what will be open in time for Christmas. Sadly, having a festive browse in the popular retail outlet stores of London and the famous Christmas markets that bring us that Christmas cheer, is not currently an option. Therefore, turning to online shopping has become the new normal of 2020. Now, this will also apply to Christmas this year.

There are plenty of online shops for your Christmas gift inspiration, from clothing to personalised gifts. Madia & Matilda are operating online and ready for any of your orders, whether it is a Christmas gift for a loved one or a well deserved treat for yourself. Christmas shopping can still be made fun when browsing our online store with plenty of unique ideas for your wish list this year. 

It is also important to note that you can shop locally to keep small businesses running in your area. Usually, you can find small local businesses on social media sites such as Facebook and Instagram, where you can purchase anything from personalised cakes and bakes to wall hangings for your home. Be sure to check your local area, contributing to these businesses over Christmas will help those families. We can all stay in this together by shopping online and locally!

Culture - Becoming a Change Maker

The climate movement, what all the fuss is about? The reality of how we as humans have been living is causing unfathomable damage to the planet.  With climate strikes and protests around the world; it has become an opportunity to involve everyone in this fight for our common future to focus on solidarity for awareness and change. 
















That’s what the climate strikes are: a peaceful reminder that young and old on every continent are now called to an intrinsically global fight. 

How can you make a difference, when the damage is already done you ask?  

Changing the products we buy, not just the clothes we wear; but also thinking about meal preparation to reduce waste, shopping in independent stores or buying second hand or hand crafted and purchasing for refillable stores.

It will take small steps, but the more small steps you make the easier it becomes. For tips on how to be more eco-conscious why not check out our guide to ethical shopping
