Welcome to OAT & OCHREHello, my name is Rosalyn, and I am the founder of OAT & OCHRE. As a parent myself, I deeply understand the concern we all share for the health and well-being of our children. This foundational concern is at the heart of why I created OAT & OCHRE—a place where caring for our children means also caring for the planet they will inherit.
The Journey to Better ChoicesNavigating through the world of the fashion industry, I quickly discovered a troubling trend: many well-known brands rely heavily on polyester, a material derived from petroleum. Alarmingly, polyester contains harmful chemicals such as formaldehyde, antimony, and Perfluorochemicals (PFCs), which pose significant risks to both health and the environment. This material makes up approximately 50% of all fibers used in the fashion industry, underscoring a significant reliance on unethical and unsustainable practices.Additionally, conventional cotton, another staple of the industry, stands as one of the most chemically intensive crops. It consumes over 68 million pounds of pesticides each year, highlighting its grave impact on both environmental and human health.Reflecting on TraditionThe fashion industry has drastically shifted from its traditional roots. Historically, brands would release an average of four collections per year; today, this number has skyrocketed to 52. This rapid increase in production has led to the use of cheaper, harmful fabrics that compromise both quality and safety.Our Stand for ChangeAt OAT & OCHRE, we are committed to reversing this trend. We focus on using natural, organic fabrics that are not only safe but are designed to last—returning to the essence of what fashion should be about. This approach is a call back to a time before fast fashion dominated, where quality, sustainability, and safety were the standards.Our Commitment to You and the PlanetOur collections are built on the foundation of true sustainability and ethical practices. By choosing OAT & OCHRE, you support a movement away from hazardous materials and wasteful practices and move towards thoughtful, conscientious fashion. Every garment we offer is a step back towards the higher standards of quality and responsibility that were once commonplace.Join Us in Making a DifferenceWith each purchase from OAT & OCHRE, you are not just buying a piece of clothing; you are voting for a return to integrity in fashion.
