ROWIE Focuses on Comfort and Craftsmanship for Its Offerings

— July 12, 2018 — Eco
ROWIE is a label based in Byron Bay, Australia that offers playful and exquisite slow fashion collections that provide the wearer with a versatile and adaptive style. Founded by Rowie Moore, who is “completely self-taught," the contemporary label is a passion project that boasts small-batch production, artisanal craftsmanship, eco-conscious practices and elegant silhouettes. The clothing is made in collaboration with artisans that are working at a local factory in Mullumbimby.

From manufacturing to shipping, ROWIE strives to be a leading example in the industry’s move to sustainability. Each item from the Aussie label’s slow fashion collection is shipped to the consumer in a comPOST pack. This is a bag that can be fully recycled at-home – from placing it in your food scrap or green waste bin to burying it in your worm farm.
