Onesta is a new slow fashion brand based in South Wales that launched in December 2020. We create small, considered collections of beautiful, timeless clothing that have longevity. Each piece is made ethically in Wales with innovative, luxury, and low-impact fabrics including seaweed, linen, hemp and Tencel. We produce our garments considering every component, down to the threads, care labels, and zips. We source as much as possible in the UK to support our local economy and limit carbon emissions. 2% of every sale is donated to charities making a difference in fashion. Sustainability is not just a trend for Onesta – the name itself means honest, and total transparency is the foundation from which the company is built.
