The road to
Sustainability
“Our love for mother earth drives us to operate in harmony with nature.”
Sustainable and Eco-friendly fabrics
Recycled materials for all product packaging
Eco-conscious corporate practices
A conscious approach to fashion
We value the environment over mass production, using consciously sourced natural fibers while taking care to replenish the resources we use. The result is concise, thoughtful collections that transcend trends and will be cherished for years to come.
Profit without purpose
We’re committed to cultivating change through raising awareness and providing philanthropic support to those in the greatest need. What is profit without purpose? We are extremely proud of the charities we support and our achievements in giving back.
Our Fabrics
The road to sustainability starts with a choice
Every day we choose to create the change we wish to see in the world. We choose to work with the most sustainable fibres we can while staying true to the quality of our pieces. We are always reviewing the fabrics we use, how they are sourced and the manufacturing methods to ensure our environmental and ethical processes are sustainable and fair.
Cotton
Natural cellulosic fibre which is 100% biodegradable, it's an environmentally friendly fabric, breathable and hypoallergenic.
Organic Cotton
Unlike conventional cotton, our organic cotton is grown without pesticides and chemicals for a positive effect on the environment.
Linen
Made from the flax plant, Linen is biodegradable and strong. The flax plant is extremely resilient and requires very little water.
Econyl®
The recycled polyamide is 100% regenerated from fishing net. It is instead processed into superior quality Italian nylon.
Cupro
A regenerated cellulose fibre derived from cotton linter, it is silky soft and regulates body temperature.
Our Pledge
At Auguste, we commit to accountability and continuous contribution to environmental causes however, there are always saddening events that call for immediate action and aid.
One Tree Planted.
One dollar. One tree. One Planet.
Together we can restore forests, create habitat for biodiversity and make a positive social impact around the world. In 2019, Auguste joined the non-profit organisation One Tree Planted - a global network of businesses, individuals and nonprofit organisations that have collectively planted over 40 million trees.
Individually, we are one drop
Together, we are an ocean
Koala Adoption
50 Koalas adopted
The devastating Australian bushfire season of 2019/2020 saw approximately a third of the wild Koala population perish in the fires. In response, Auguste sponsored fifty wild koalas with the Port Macquarie Koala Hospital, a wildlife rehabilitation facility dedicated to saving the lives of our precious koalas. Each adoption assists in rescuing and treating injured koalas, their release back into the wild and the conservation and expansion of those habitats.
One Tree Planted
35,502 Trees Planted
One Tree Planted is a non-profit organisation facilitating a greener type of growth, planting millions of trees globally through local partnerships. Since 2019, Auguste and One Tree Planted have offered you the option to add a tree to your cart for just $1.50, and we match your donation one for one. With your help, our little green thumbs have planted 17,000 trees from the Gold Coast to Grafton, creating an uninterrupted pathway for our native Koalas to live and graze along the way.
NSW Rural Fire Service
$38,974 donated
The deadly Australian bushfire season of 2019/2020 was worse than we had ever seen before. More than 2400 homes were destroyed in New South Wales alone, over 5.5 million hectares in the state burned, over a billion animals perished, and our volunteers were relentless.
To support the tireless efforts of the New South Wales Rural Fire Service, Auguste donated 100% of sales for 24 hours to aid the firefighters and their heroic work.
Borneo Orangutan Survival
We sponsored an orangutan adoption
In 2017, we ran the ‘90 Days of Change’ campaign to support Borneo Orangutan Survival - we sponsored an orangutan adoption on behalf of an online customer every day for 90 days. When an infant orangutan is taken away from its mother, they do not learn the necessary survival skills. The BOS team dedicates itself to providing these skills so that they may return to the wild.
Great Barrier Reef
$33,831.57 to AMCS
Being a brand that calls Byron Bay home, we cherish the ocean. The Australian Marine Conservation Society works to reduce fatal coral bleaching and protect the Great Barrier Reef from land erosion, industrialisation and sediment runoff. Since 2017, Auguste has supported the AMCS through our partnership with 1% For The Planet, along with our Protect Our Reef tee. 100% of the retail price was donated to AMCS.
