IS EMPRESS ATHLETICUS SUSTAINABLE?
MADE BY WOMEN FOR WOMEN
We're bringing back Aussie Manufacturing!
Empress Athleticus is proudly manufactured on the Sunshine Coast, QLD, and our factory meets all Australian standards for ethical clothing production. For the few items made offshore, we ensure they are crafted in facilities that align with our strict ethical standards, so you can trust that every Empress piece is produced responsibly.
We are committed to supporting local employment, providing Australian women with opportunities to gain independence, build friendships, develop new skills, and find alignment and fulfilment through meaningful work.
" We value making a difference to the world, and if we can leave it a little better then found it, we think that's a win!"
sustainable and ethical manufacturing.
why presale
We’re committed to eco-friendly practices across our entire business, which includes sustainable and ethical manufacturing. Our presale model not only gives our customers the opportunity to purchase our garments in their size but gives them peace of mind that they’re contributing to slow and sustainable fashion.
It’s our belief that fashion should be fun and inclusive to all women, regardless of size or body shape, however it should not cost the earth. By purchasing on presale, you’re contributing to minimal waste manufacturing and we think that’s important. We want to make garments for you, not for landfill.

MORE THAN JUST OUR COMPOSTABLE MAILERS
IT STARTS WITH PACKAGING!
Sustainability is very important to us and we know that it is important to our customers as well.
We will never send you a garment in a cheap cellophane bag, as we care about the big things and small things, down to every last piece of paper. For this reason, we use No Issue Eco Packaging where for every order we make, No Issue plant a tree for us in areas of need. We think that’s pretty cool.
Our goal is to have every component of our packaging you receive to either go in the composter or recycling bin.
Sustainability at Empress Athleticus goes so much further than just our compostable mailers and using recycled materials where we are able to.
