Refinery29.com just named The Factory’s production/retail space in San Francisco on 4th and Harrison St. one of the “Best Store Openings of 2011 So Far!” Check it out!
“Both an actual small-run factory and a retail shop carrying many of the results, this SoMa space was created in order to keep The Factory’s seamstresses in Los Angeles working year-round. Local designers using the services include Apres Collective, Gio Adamme, and Robyn Shore, while The Factory’s eponymous in-house label carries exclusive collaborations between itself and designers such as Esther Han and Zoe Hong.”

The Factory donates their excess fabric each year to schools in Africa so children can have the school uniforms needed to receive their education. Everyday donates to your choice of 5 charities with each sale, including providing fresh drinking water to African impoverished communities or building solar panels to create more green energy!
There are so many ways to give back to the world through fashion and StyleElevation is very proud to support great brands who do their share!

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!
