When you shop from StyleElevation’s latest brand – The Factory, you are directly supporting the  full time employment of talented seamstresses in The Factory’s San Francisco and Los Angeles production studios.

The Factory is the in-house brand of The Evans Group, a production house who has sewn for top brands including Ella Moss, 7 for All Mankind, Splendid, Nicky Hilton, Geren Ford, Society for Rational Dress, our own Heike Jarick, and many more!  The Evans Group launched their own line – The Factory, in order to keep their talented staff of sewers and seamstresses (many of whom graduated from SF and LA design schools including FIDM) employed full time, year round!

Also, at the end of each year, The Evans Group donates excess fabric to schools in Africa so children can wear the school uniforms required for attending class and receiving an education.

So!  “Where are your clothes made?”  Make sure that when you shop, you are supporting brands who produce their clothing and accessories in methods that you agree with!
