Rene Geneva Design

Eco-Friendly Fabrics

Every design listed on our website is produced with sustainable textiles and every design has a 100% certified organic option. We include a Sustainability percentage with each description so you may have a quick gauge as to how eco friendly the clothing item is.

Our certified organic cottons are sized with sanforization, finished with cornstarch, and if dyed, done so with low impact dyes. Our hemp fabrics carry a Sustainable Biodegradable Product, or SBP™ rating. All of our silks are formaldehyde free and many have a beautiful hue that is left undyed. If you are chemically sensitive to fabrics, we offer many options to be used in our designs, or we can custom make anything you like.

Each textile we offer has been hand picked and approved by our designer and offers the highest level of commitment to our enviornment. We are constantly on the search for new and innovative fabrics and technologies that will ensure the sustainabillity of our enviornment and our children's children. It is not only our health that is dependent on toxic free fabrics, it is the health of our social enviornment ensuring that the men and women that produce our garments and the fabrics we purchase are doing so fairly.

Fabrics we carry in stock to produce our special orders are available for retail sale to the public, by the whole yard. If you are interested, please contact us. We do not send swatches, sell wholesale, or except returns on fabric. Minimum is one yard.

Sorry, we do not share sources and will not answer general inquiries regarding sourcing. If you are interested in hiring us for Source Consulting, please visit here.

We make our clothing in the USA and we also work with Fair Trade Labor in developing coutries to provide "Sweat-Free" clothing. We even work with indigenous cultures and small villages globally to bring you unique organic women's clothes that use their traditional textile methods, including hand spun and hand woven SKAL certified organic cotton, peace silk (where the silk is cultivated after the moth's hatch from the cocoon). Soy clothing uses only non-GMO soy (or not genetially modified Soy) and we use only formaldehyde-free silk. We utilitze renewable resources by using fabrics such as Bamboo and Hemp for our women's clothing, bridal, and eveningwear. Our personal and affiliates work tirelessly to ensure that our hemp fabric comes from small, organic farms and all of our fabric is spun with fair trade labor. We are the only high fashion design house that offers the Fashionably Neutral Carbon Program™ which certifies each garment as Carbon Neutral and offers truly carbon neutral clothing as a result. A portion of your purchase supports this effort, as well as our Scraps for Schools™ program, which recycles fabric scraps for children's art projects. We are working on the Sun Power Project™ which facilitates the installation of solar electricity into a women's sewing cooperative in Central America. We use windpowered webhosting, have a bio diesel car (VW Golf TDI.. highly recommended, 47MPG!!), and use eco friendly printing with recycled paper, paper made from Elephant Dung, and soy inks.
