Who Made My Clothes? | Fashion Revolution Day & The Eva Cassis Commitment

Every year on April 24th, the fashion world pauses to remember. Fashion Revolution Day marks the anniversary of the Rana Plaza factory collapse in Bangladesh in 2013 — one of the deadliest industrial disasters in history. Over 1,100 garment workers, mostly young women, lost their lives while making clothes for well-known global fashion brands. This tragedy became a wake-up call that sparked a global movement for transparency, accountability, and ethics in fashion.

At Eva Cassis, we don’t let this day pass without deep reflection. Fashion Revolution Day is more than a memorial — it’s a powerful reminder of why we exist and who we serve.

Why Fashion Revolution Matters to Us

Eva Cassis was founded in 2012 to offer a thoughtful alternative to fast fashion. The Rana Plaza disaster confirmed what we already believed: the fashion industry must change — and it must put people and the planet before profit.

Fashion Revolution’s core question, “Who made my clothes?”, is one we proudly answer with transparency. Every garment we create is the result of respectful partnerships, fair working conditions, and conscious, slow processes. We don’t chase trends or seasons — we craft enduring pieces that honor the people who make them and the women who wear them.

Our Ongoing Commitment

Fashion Revolution Day is not just one day of reflection — it’s embedded in our everyday decisions:

• Ethical production: Our clothing is handmade in small batches in Sydney and India, where we know each maker by name and ensure safe, dignified work conditions.

• Sustainable materials: We only use sustainably certified natural fabrics and consciously chosen deadstock to reduce waste.

• Timeless design: Our garments are relaxed, flattering, and ageless — made to last and to love, not to landfill.

• Transparency & trust: We share our process openly so you can feel proud of the clothing you choose.

Honoring Makers, Respecting You

For our community of women aged 40 and beyond, who are building slow, intentional wardrobes — you are already part of the revolution. When you ask questions, shop consciously, and invest in pieces that reflect your values, you help reshape fashion for the better.

Let’s keep asking: Who made my clothes?
Let’s keep demanding better.
Let’s keep choosing better.

For the women who wear our clothes.
For the women who make them.
For the future we all deserve.

With care and consciousness,
Eva Xx
