From second-hand designer goods and ethically produced resortwear to great goodies for your home, these UAE-based businesses are leading the charge against fast fashion

Oni Earth-Kind Fabrics
A love for India and the desire to support the “slow fashion” movement was the driving force behind Oni earth-kind fabrics’ inception. founded by nea ferrier and her husband Mark Rodgers in 2015 following a visit to Rajasthan, this Dubai-based brand offers handcrafted quilts and kanthas in rich colours and eye-catching prints, made by women from Jaipur and Bagru. Pieces utilise traditional indian design techniques, such as Dabu printing, a Rajasthani process where clay-mud is applied to fabric using a woodblock. the cotton used is certified pure organic by the Global organic textile standard, while the non-toxic dyes adhere to Reach international standards, a European Union regulation that looks to protect both humans and the environment. safe and ethical work practices are also an integral part of Oni’s ethos. no child labour is ever used and employees make their own fair wages from their craft while working in safe environments. onifabrics.com
