Our Values

We believe that sustainability and fashion can go hand in hand. We select pieces for their unique style but also to fit with our values of:

  • Sustainability
  • Creative design
  • Biodiversity
  • Social inclusion
  • Appreciation of popular culture and community crafts

 

Our objective is to improve the income and autonomy of women and people from low-income communities in Brazil.

 

Our designers and local partners create collections encapsulating expertise. Through our interaction, dissemination and sale of products, we provide artists with the opportunity to gain visibility in the international market.

 

Our concept is heavily based on circular fashion. This means our ethos centres on developing products in a more durable, regenerative and sustainable life cycle. Known as "upcycling,’’ products - otherwise discarded - are given a new use and lease of life. While recycling a plastic bottle creates a new one, we upcycle using a variety of written off:

 

  • Bottles
  • Cans
  • Green coconut

 

to create new items such as accessories, bracelets, necklaces, earrings and bags.

 

By extending these items' life cycle, we are positively impacting low-income communities. We work with collective creation, production and information centres aimed at talented people who live in low-income communities, seeking professional positioning and consequent social inclusion.

 

Bossa follows its values to encourage and promote change in this sector, aiming at the conservation and sustainable use of natural resources, generating socio-environmental transformations and growth with social responsibility and dignity.

 

It is possible to transform with honesty, transparency and consistency in our actions and relationships, respect for social, cultural, environmental and economic diversity, and appreciate and recognise its complexity.

 

In addition to the exclusivity of all our pieces, by purchasing Bossa products, you become directly responsible for helping different women and people with their work, generating income and acquiring their independence, completely changing the course of their families. A small gesture = a huge impact. Shop now and change a life on the other side of the world.
