Doing our bit for the planet.


There is almost nothing on earth as sustainable and environmentally friendly as  breastfeeding. As such, we wanted to create a brand and design pieces that worked in harmony with this. 

At Lyla and Leche we strive to produce our dresses from deadstock fabric. This refers to fabrics that have been discarded by large fashion retailers, and which would ordinarily end up in landfills, further contributing to the mounting environmental issues being faced by our planet. We spend our weekends trawling warehouses in the hope of finding on trend cast offs to create our pieces. To date, all of our pieces have been created in this way and we have learnt that there is so much truth in the expression that "one (wo)man's trash is another (wo)man's treasure!"

We also thought long and hard about our packaging, determined to reduce our carbon footprint where possible. All of our dresses are lovingly sent to you in eco-friendly paper mailing bags, which are 100% recyclable. We also use tape that has been made from 100% recycled paper and brand our parcels with an old fashioned stamp and ink kit!
