From St. Xavier

Why We ♥ From St Xavier: Sustainable, Artisanal Craftsmanship, Ethical Fashion Ambassador

The From St. Xavier philosophy is one of empowerment – both for the artisans that produce their pieces, and the women who wear them.

From St. Xavier (FSX) is synonymous with artisanal craftsmanship, exceptional quality, and a refined aesthetic that perfectly merges prominent trends with the quintessentially quirky FSX personality.

While simultaneously experimenting with new textiles and hand-crafting techniques to ensure the art of traditional craft is kept alive, their pieces can take up to four days and 20 hands to produce. Each of their signature embellished accessories is handled by several technician specialists from framers, embroiders, and bead specialists, ensuring the highest quality and imbuing our pieces with an authentic human touch.

From St. Xavier holds sustainability and conscious production as core tenets of the brand identity. All fibers used in the linings of the bags are recycled as means of reducing the huge problem of textile wastage within the fashion accessory and apparel industries. They also formulate their designs around what raw materials (such as glass beads, sequins, gemstones, etc) are already available or remain from previous collections in order to mitigate any excess and wastage.

They strongly believe in upholding their social obligations as a brand, and by working with small artisanal communities across North India they are able to invest in a richly diverse skillset that is being lost in our rapidly automated world.
