SUSTAINABILITY AT THISTLE AND SPIRE

We don’t just design to empower; we design with intention.

Making new products can never be truly sustainable but we reduce our carbon footprint where we can, from carefully considering ways to create the designs you love to the mailers that deliver your next lingerie obsession.

This Ain’t a One Time Thing

Through our recycling initiatives, we’ve saved 3,000 lbs of lingerie from ending up in landfills, helping prevent harmful greenhouse gas emissions.

We donate leftover fabrics in our design studio to local universities and work with Fab Scrap to repurpose or recycle cuts from our factories.

Our 3D pattern software has allowed us to cut down on sampling too which saves resources, fabric scrapping and shipping.

Supported & Empowered

We’re committed to supporting equality and inclusion, and actively defend your rights to be your authentic self. We donate quarterly to the ACLU, The Trevor Project and the Kinsey Institute to drive change and support communities.

Giving Second Chances

With the birth of Gaia we started using recycled fabrics in our collections - and our tiny design team are planning more recycled pieces, such our latest, the Eden collection. Stay tuned. 

Any unsold pieces are donated to charities too.

Creativity with Intention

We embraced 3D pattern software which cut sampling in half—less waste, more innovation, and the same fierce designs you love.

Wrapped Up Right

Your order arrives in 100% recycled paper mailers and we ensure as many details as possible—from our glassine and recycled polybags to recycled paper hang tags and boxes—aligns with our values to reduce our impact on the earth.

Come With Us

Sustainability is not a destination—it’s a journey. We’re constantly looking for ways to improve, innovate, and reduce our environmental impact, all while empowering you to feel unapologetically yourself.
