Unique to other collections, Piece & Co. collection of accessories and apparel created with eight brands: Alice + Olivia, Current/Elliott, DVF, Joie, Rebecca Minkoff, Theory, The Honest Company, and Tory Burch.
The twist to this? This collection also has global impact. Each brand in this collaboration worked closely with Piece & Co. to source handmade materials and fabrics that are then incorporated into their pieces – dresses, tops, skirts, shorts and handbags.
For instance, Alice + Olivia’s A-line dress in an artisan-made bold blue and white loom-woven fabric, made in a weaving cooperative in India. Additionally, Tory Burch’s crackle printed canvas separates made of hand-painted fabric from Zambia. These are just a few examples from the collection.
