ABOUT ALLTRUEIST

Fashion is an art form, a medium through which we can express ourselves and make a statement. But behind the glamour and glitz, lies a dark side to the fashion industry - one of exploitation and questionable practices.

At AllTRUEist, we believe that fashion should be more than just a superficial pursuit, it should be a means of creating a better world.

DRIVEN BY PURPOSE

From the desire to combine luxury fashion with ethical values, our brand was founded.

Our founder, Marcus Aliaga, was disappointed by the limited options for high-end and sustainable professional attire. Determined to set a new standard in fashion, he took the initiative to establish a brand that aligns luxury and ethics.

Since our founding in 2015, ALLTRUEIST has been at the forefront of the sustainable fashion movement. We take greenwashing seriously, and thoroughly vet our brands to ensure they meet our high standards.

As we expand into growing our own ALLTRUEIST label, the same care goes into our production, ensuring that our brand stands behind what we sell.

STANDARDS

We are dedicated to offering luxury fashion that is not only elegant and refined, but also responsible and eco-conscious. Our curated collection of vegan handbags and luxury shoes are expertly chosen to meet the highest standards of luxury and environmental stewardship.

VALUES

We understand that true luxury is not only about the price tag, but about exceptional craftsmanship, premium materials, and timeless designs that stand the test of time. All of our brands are meticulously selected for their commitment to responsible design and green practices, allowing you to indulge in luxury fashion without compromising your values.

CURATION

We have a meticulous selection process that is dedicated to curating only the best and innovative brands that prioritize environmentally conscious design and cruelty-free materials.

We are constantly pushing the boundaries of luxury fashion by providing a collection that is both sophisticated and responsible. From the ethical sourcing of materials to the masterful craftsmanship, we take immense pride in carefully selecting luxury products that truly embody the concept of "luxury with a conscience." Our strict selection process ensures that every piece in our collections not only exude refinement but also align with our commitment to sustainability, ethical production and attention to detail.

TRANSPARENCY

Sustainability in fashion is a complex issue, and it is important to approach it with a realistic and discerning mindset. It is essential to be mindful that sustainability and veganism are not mutually inclusive concepts in the fashion industry.

Not all brands that claim to be sustainable truly prioritize environmental and ethical considerations, and not all vegan brands are necessarily sustainable.

Unfortunately, the issue of greenwashing is prevalent in the industry, and it is crucial to approach these claims with a critical eye and thoroughly research a brand's practices before supporting them.

We recognize that sustainability is a journey, not a destination and we carefully select brands & materials that are actively working towards making a positive impact as there is no "perfect" brand.

Your support in this mission is a motivation for us to continue promoting and supporting brands that align with our values of ethics, sustainability and luxury, and that are making a genuine effort to create a better future.

Together, with all our baby steps, we can make a real difference.
