Hello! Our names are Barbara & Carolina, co-founders of Binge. Our brand was born on a New York winter season, when we were design students at Parsons, The New School for Design.
We've always had a fascination for the handmade, and avid knitters ourselves, we started out by creating cold-weather accessories for our close friends in the city. As our need to create increased with each stitch we took, our desire to influence a more sustainable and ethical fashion industry grew as well. We believe the fashion supply chain should be transparent and working conditions in manufacturing should be kind.
Today, we collaborate with female artisans in Mexico, our native country where we are now based. What started out of a mid-town New York apartment has now grown into an evolving community of makers with the power to make a positive change.
“We're stocked in some of the best stores and art instituions in the world thanks to Faire, and use it to source products for our two shops in South East London too. Some of our strongest brand and supplier relationships have come through Faire.”
