Mission per company’s website: “ethical. sustainable. organic. welcome to body politic! Sustainable design, limitless style. It’s about choice, not sacrifice.

Final Thoughts: We met with Nicole Ritchie-Oseen. Sustainable Clothing? Yes! It that is how wonderful and diverse is the world of sustainability. This company design sustainable clothing. Although it is difficult to overcome competition the company actually retains its customers by educating their clients. Some of the profit for different products sold goes to a foundation where the clothing was made.  It works with designer of clothing and accessories from USA, Canada, Mexico, Brazil and others. It opened 3 years ago and has mixed clients (mainly women mid 30’s) and now selling online. All of the customers care where clothing is made and what is made of. In the clothing you will see difference, quality, and value.
