{WEBSHOP LAUNCH!} Live Now!!!

www.madamchino.com is now live with webshop full of clothing and accessories 100% USA-Made from recycled T-shirts.

Eco, sustainable, and ethical fashion industries are rooted and growing, ground-up across the globe with increased awareness of the ongoing atrocities caused by fast fashion. Textile recycling is the oldest form of recycling and yet has the least implemented programs in current US municipalities. 11 million tons of textiles are thrown in actual trashes each year, making up 5.2% of our solid waste in the USA.

Madam Chino shares a complex and original USA-Made Brand that is constructed completely of recycled t-shirt textiles. Hand-chosen materials are sourced from a USA textile sorting facility and transformed with inventive reuse and skilled labor, into artful wearable forms with little-to-no waste. The brand offers a reclaim program for used Madam Chino garments, accepts local donations of T-shirt fabrics, and provides new styles and colors seasonally.

The USA-made ethically created fashion label of Vanessa Devaki Andrew, 32 year old reuse entrepreneur, welcomes the next decade of the brand with a user-friendly website offering a wide variety of apparel products created from 100% recycled T-shirts handmade to order; incorporating unprecedented product quality and quantity control for the field of one-of-a-kind handmade garments using up-cycled post-consumer textiles. For eco-friendly shoppers, the Madam Chino E-tail experience offers a unique opportunity to purchase classic and trendy jersey-knit active and casual wear and accessories in multiple sizes and colors, both wholesale and individually, all while diverting and converting waste into useable recycled forms at a fair and affordable price.
