Can Better Fabrics and Materials Make Your Wardrobe Last Longer?

This week, we’re taking a closer look at something we’re passionate about at Under Her Eyes: the secret ingredients that makes our collections so special – our fabrics and materials. We all love clothes and accessories that not only look amazing but also stand the test of time. So, what’s the key to achieving this? It’s all about the quality of the materials we choose.

Why Quality Fabrics Matter

Let’s face it: there’s a world of difference between a fast-fashion piece and one crafted from luxury fabrics. Quality materials aren’t just about looks- they’re all about how great products feel, how long they last and how confident they make you feel when you wear them. Think about that buttery soft leather handbag you love or the crisp linen shirt that’s perfect for summer. These pieces don’t just fall apart after a few washes. They’re designed to last, making them not only more sustainable but also a smarter investment for your wardrobe.

Sustainability and Longevity

Speaking of sustainability, choosing high quality materials is one of the best ways to reduce our fashion footprint. When clothes are made to last, they don’t end up in landfill after a season. Instead, they become cherished items in your closet. At Under Her Eyes, we’re committed to using sustainable fashion materials like organic cotton, vegetable leather and recycled leather which not only feel amazing but also have a lower environmental impact.

The Craftmanship Behind Our Materials

Let’s talk craftsmanship. It’s not just about the fabric; it’s about how it’s made. We work with skilled artisans who understand the intricacies of dyeing and finishing each piece individually. This expertise ensures that every item not only looks fabulous but also maintains its beauty over time. Our commitment to quality craftsmanship in fashion is what sets us apart, and it's why our pieces feel so special.

Sourcing Our Fabrics

Finding the perfect materials is a journey. We source our own fabrics, ensuring that they meet our high standards for quality and sustainability. We believe that knowing where your clothes come from adds another layer of appreciation to the pieces you wear.

Feel The Difference

When you own a garment made from luxury fabrics, you can feel the difference. The texture, the drape, the way it complements your silhouette (like our Elektra bag, inspired by the shapes of women in Renaissance art) are the details that elevate your style and make getting dressed an experience. And let’s not forget about comfort! High-quality materials breathe better, fit better, and wear better, making them a joy to wear all day long.

Final Thoughts

Investing in quality isn’t just a choice; it’s a commitment to yourself and to the planet. By choosing clothes made from exclusive, sustainable materials, you're supporting a fashion industry that values quality over quantity. At Under Her Eyes, we’re proud to offer collections that combine luxury fabrics with expert craftsmanship, ensuring that every piece is as special as you are.
