The Emperor's Old Clothes
Syed Nayeem's Company Details
At Emperors' we work hard to live by our core values, we believe that the fashion industry should be transparent, sustainably produced and inclusive in its representation of every part of society.We are always striving to do better to lessen the environmental impact of our clothing production. We provide a safe + supportive working environment for our employees. So that The Emperor's Old Clothes brand + the products we produce are as sustainable, inclusive and as accessible as possible. We always try our best but don't claim to be perfect on any of these fronts and value constructive feedback from our customers, followers + peers.Every one of our garments is created on site by our small team in our cosy Brighton studio in the UK. We pay our team members a living wage and invest in our local community with free sewing traineeships to encourage the continuation of our craft.We believe in inclusivity and responsible advertising. This includes being transparent about who makes your clothes across our marketing. It is also means catering to people of different sizes, ethnicities, genders, ages and abilities and representing people within these different intersections in our marketing too. We don't claim to be perfect at this by any means – we are as yet to feature models with visible disabilities – but we are consciously working towards these goals.We are so proud to be a living wage employer in the UK. This means that each member of our team is paid the living wage or higher for Brighton & Hove. This includes our seamstresses, marketing assistants and models.Unusually for our industry we also ensure that our core team are salaried. This means no zero hour contracts, no being paid ‘per items sewn'. We set an hourly rate and have clear contracts in place so everyone knows where they stand. This may seem obvious for those who work 9-5 but this is very unusual in the fashion industry, especially in garment production.
