White Chalk, we are proud to support amazing
Marlborough businesses as well as nationwide.
When you buy White Chalk, you support
NEW ZEALAND pattern makers, graphic
designers, website hosts, printers, couriers,
box makers, tissue paper makers, sample
makers, seamstresses, cutters, website designers,
packing staff, dispatch staff, retail shop staff,
models, and email hosts. These are all vital
components to locally-owned businesses.
It’s important to think about who you are
supporting, and where possible, choose to
purchase a product made locally. You can take
pride in knowing you have supported a local
entrepreneur or family operation who are
passionate about what they do.
It feels like the right thing to produce beautiful
garments in our own backyard and use all the
fantastic skills we have in New Zealand. With
many labels going off-shore chasing the cheaper
dollar, it makes us feel proud to involve so many
local and New Zealand businesses in our work
and enjoy the end product as much as we do.
Come along on the NZ Made ride – it’s a great
journey to be part of.
Fashion tips for your
Spring Wardrobe
• This spring we are seeing larger prints coming
through with inspiration drawn from nature.
• Bright fluoro-colours are starting to die out and
make way for softer colourways.
• Off-the-shoulder dresses and tops give an
opportunity to show off the shoulders, an asset
often overlooked.
• Long sleeves in spring are always a nice added
bonus in dressier pieces to wear for an evening
or outdoor event.
• Classic prints such as polka dots are always a
winner and give a beautiful classy feel.
