What's the palava pantry?

A while ago, we started asking ourselves one big question - How do we make more from making less?

This February, we have been making the most of what is in our pantry. Learning to make the delicious English dish, “bubble and squeak.” If you don’t know already, this is a dish made from leftovers. It takes all the things you don’t know what to do with and puts them together to make one exquisite, balanced meal.

Our Pyjamas are here!

As part of our February Palava Pantry project, these pyjamas are one of the first things to come out of the cupboard.

They’re made using roll ends we’ve been saving over time, fabrics we loved, but didn’t quite have enough of at the time...

So we waited until there was enough to do something properly, and that’s how the pyjamas came to be.

We run two seasons a year.Sometimes we hold things back and re-release them the following year. Why? Some pieces take longer to find their home. In celebration of being more conscious of our production. We re-release some pieces from previous seasons. We’ve done this before, and we will continue doing this in the future.

When does waste stop being our responsibility?

The answer is it doesn't. A piece of clothing doesn’t have to have just one story. We know clothing goes on to lead many lives.

We don’t believe a garment’s life ends when it’s damaged or no longer loved. If it’s broken, it can be repaired. If it’s tired, it can be cared for.

We have tried to solve this with our Pre-Loved scheme, where customers sell pieces back to us to be worn again. Our workshops focus on using materials we already have. Our mending schemes, where we connect people with repair specialists. Our sample sales, where imperfect garments are sold rather than discarded.

And when it finally does reach the time it can't be worn any longer? They are all designed for this, ready to go back to the soil.
