SaffronWinds, a UK based trade company, is shouldering aside the big wigs with its ethical fashion range.

Glasgow, United Kingdom, August 17, 2010 - Glasgow based ethical trading company SaffronWinds is built on the vision of its founder to develop an ethical fashion line that is starting to challenge the "ethnic" clothing styles put out by some bigger named companies. Saffron Winds (www.saffronwinds.com) is the brainchild of Malaysian founder Fiona, who has achieved her life long dream of setting up a business whereby she can give some help and hope to the craftspeople in and around Southeast Asia: her ranges of ethical clothing, handbags and jewellery items are all made by, and sourced from, village workers in Thailand and Cambodia. That, of course, makes them 100% authentic and guaranteed fair trade - a double recognition that is starting to be felt in the market place as SaffronWinds new ethical fashion lines begin to overtake the less genuine merchandise found in some of the bigger stores.

Building on her success, Fiona is determined to expand her catchment area for new fashion items, clothing and gifts to include more islands and countries in the Southeast Asia region. Her merchants and workers are all hand picked and a guaranteed percentage of the income from each sold item goes directly to them. That's not a model that the larger companies seem able to support - which, according to Fiona, is precisely the point - "bridging the gap," she says, "between those who have and those who have not."

The ethical fashion on her site is all guaranteed authentic merchandise, created in village workshops supported by benevolent organisations like the AAC (Artisan's Association of Cambodia). It falls broadly into three categories - clothing accessories including scarves and handbags; jewellery; and home wares. More lines are to be added in the coming months. With support for the site and its mission growing daily, SaffronWinds looks to be on the cusp of greatness.
