Production & Responsibility

Production

Our garments are made in Lombardy, Italy. We work with a small number of specialised mills and manufacturers, chosen for their craftsmanship and their commitment to responsible practices. Close relationships and regular visits give us oversight at every stage of production.

Each collection is produced in limited quantities. We choose to make fewer pieces well rather than chase volume.

We believe how something is made matters as much as the finished piece. Working closely with our partners allows us to create with intention, patience and respect for the process.

Beyond production

Caring about what we make doesn't end at the studio door. At the heart of B. Corlès is a simple wish: that women feel good in what they wear — and that this sense of confidence and possibility extends beyond our own community.

As part of that belief, 1% of every sale is donated to Girl Effect's work in Tanzania, supporting girls and young women as they navigate the challenges that can shape their futures.

Across Tanzania, many girls face barriers to education, health and economic opportunity. Girl Effect works alongside young people and local communities to help change this — providing girls with the knowledge, resources and support to make informed choices about their lives and their futures. Their work includes helping girls stay in school, access essential health services and build the confidence and skills to pursue their ambitions.

We chose to support this work because we believe every girl should have the opportunity to shape her own future.
