What does “sustainable fashion” mean to you? It means longevity. I believe in products that are made well and well cared for throughout their lifecycle. If all fashion was organic and the consumer knew how to properly care for it, from washing to repairing, then clothing would last as long as it used to. Two generations ago, people would buy pieces in their teenage years and have it until they where grandpare ..read more

How long have you been in business? 10 years How did you come up with the name of your company? Anjali means offering. My husband, Kristinn and I had worked in the NY fashion industry for more than 30 years combined and we were burnt out from the never-ending pace. When we found Yoga, about 17 years ago, we started to ask some pretty deep questions of ourselves. Over the years, we concluded that we wanted to live more meaningful lives, where we felt connected to a more divine purpose. We combined our knowledge of fashion and our love of Yoga and Anjali was born. It’s the way that we offer our ..read more
