TRavel ready clothing built for your active lifestyle
WHO ARE WE?
Hey there! I'm Melanie. Though I usually work alone, I sometimes coax my husband Chad into joining me. Like most artists with a DIY maker spirit we took the long road to get to where we are. First we picked up some hammers and built a wood shop. We had no idea what we were doing but have learned along the way. Then came our house and small design and production studio. From here we've been creating Melanie Grace Designs since 2003. We love making art, traveling, and spending time outdoors! We combine these passions to make garments that are...
BUILT TO LAST
Our comfortable, contemporary designs aim to strike the perfect balance between work and play. We focus on flexibility of movement and impeccable fits while being sure to include all of the details for supreme functionality like built in slips, pockets, and wrinkle resistant activewear fabrics. making them supremely easy to wear. With a laser sharp focus on quality construction, these garments will last through the multitude of wears they're sure to get as they become your "go to" favorites.
SUSTAINABLE
We make our line in limited edition runs with most items being made to order to avoid waste. We source responsibly, using fabrics with a smaller environmental footprint whenever possible. This includes using natural fibers such as organic cottons, hemp and wool as well as deadstock (designer surplus) fabrics. Our in-house designed prints are created using a sublimation process which uses no water or toxic dyes in a process that creates zero waste. They are printed on certified recycled polyester REPREVE. And last but not least, we collect every last scrap of fabric waste and recycle everything possible.
PACKABLE
Just like a choice travel companion, they're low maintenance, easy, and fun! Wear them for work or play. Perfect for yoga, hiking, biking, frolicking, dinner out, tiptoeing through the tulips or any adventure you may encounter!
UNIQUE
Our fun prints, uniquely textured textiles, and active wear fabrics make a statement without being fussy.
