About Tuccarlar
SLOW FASHION, BOLD STORIES
TUCCARLAR IS MUCH MORE THAN A MARKETPLACE – WE’RE A PLATFORM BUILT TO CONNECT INDEPENDENT DESIGNERS WITH CONSCIOUS CONSUMERS
DESIGN WITH HEART, NOT TRENDS
Providing easy and direct access to the world’s best and most unique independent labels, Tuccarlar sidesteps the heavy revolving doors of the traditional fashion industry. A portal to inspirational, creative and conscientious brands, we disrupt the traditional catwalk-to-highstreet cycle of fast fashion, featuring only designers who follow their hearts ahead of empty trends.
We believe in fashion, and in designers with a story to tell.
We think of ourselves as a book, holding each of those tales together – every chapter building the narrative of design excellence. It’s a story we tell every day, providing makers and doers with the dedicated space to sell their work directly and at a price as fair to them as it is to our customers. Ultimately we care about creative talent, celebrating incredible designs and all the drive and vision that brought them into being.
We continue to be committed to our mission of providing high-quality products that not only meet our customers' expectations but also align with our values, one of which is offering cruelty-free products. While our customers may expect the use of traditional luxury fabrics such as silk, we continue to search for alternative options that are both luxurious and ethically made. We’re determined to continue our work on cruelty-free products, as it is an essential part of our brand's identity and a reflection of our dedication to making a positive impact in the fashion industry.
Our Approach
We’ve always created thoughtfully, consciously and slowly without overproducing. We want to make clothes that we truly love; our collections are small, edited and crafted in limited runs that we restock according to demand. We’re never swayed by trends or tempted to dilute the Tuccarlar DNA. Instead we create timeless, love-forever pieces that are designed to be worn on repeat over and over.
We take our responsibility to the planet and every person involved in making our clothes incredibly seriously and as the label grows and evolves, we want to make sure that we’re creating responsibly as well as thoughtfully. We are aware that there’s a lot more than we can be doing and we are committed to constantly educate ourselves, improve the ways that we operate at every level of the business and be as transparent as possible in the process.
OUR FABRICS
We take our time to meticulously choose fabrics that combine luxury and longevity so that everything we make feels both good on the body, and lasts in your wardrobe. We’re doing everything we can to minimise waste and use every metre of fabric that we order. Most of our pieces are printed digitally which reduces fabric waste and allows us to have smaller production runs and reduces water waste, as digital printing uses fewer washing and rinse cycles.
We never send anything to landfill or to be incinerated. We’ve already started using FSC viscose and recycled polyester in our collections where possible and our goal is to phase out virgin polyester entirely by 2024. Right now, 75% of our swimwear is produced using recycled nylon or recycled polyester and we aim to make this 100% by 2025. Our collections will always be fur free.
