« I love the Côte d’Opale so much that I wanted to create a project that represents it This is how Théo Dolinski explains the creation of his La Côte brand. At first, two models are available, a seal or a welsh. ” These are two things that really represent our region, it’s a little nod to the Côte d’Opale he says. The sweaters are available from XS to XXL, on the brand’s social networks and website.
He returns to his region of origin
The idea germinated a year and a half ago in the young man. After a business school in Lille and numerous trips abroad, he returned to the region. ” I grew up here, the region is developing a lot and it is important to me to participate adds Théo Dolinski. This project had been on his mind for some time, but the seal was the trigger. ” The idea first came from the seal, here we see it every day, it is a real symbol of the Opal Coast “. Théo Dolinski then embarked on the adventure of entrepreneurship. ” More than anything, my goal is to make clothes on the Opal Coast for people who love our Opal Coast. ».
Eco-responsible clothing?
When he embarked on the project a few months ago, the first quest was to find the factory. ” I wanted a neutral garment that I might embroider, but I had criteria, so I naturally came across a Belgian wholesaler “. For Théo Dolinski, it was important not to participate in fast fashion. ” I wanted clothes of very good quality, respectful of the environment, human and animal rights. »
The clothes are thus produced in a factory in Bangladesh known to be free of pesticides, insecticides, chemical fertilizers and GMOs. The factory is part of the Fair Wear Foundation, which carries out on-site checks to comply with the charter: respect for human working conditions, no animal fibres, etc.
Finally, the sweaters are made of 85% organic cotton, and the remaining 15% polyester. Regarding the embroideries, they are made in a family workshop in Saint-Quentin. ” It is important for me to carry out this project while minimizing the environmental impact he confides.
The sweaters are available on the brand’s social networks (@La_cote_textile on Instagram) and on the website la-cote.sumupstore.com
