Our Ethics
Asquith London manufactures our clothing in two small factories in India and Portugal.
The employees in the factory receive good pay and experience comfortable working conditions and regular holidays. They work in a clean, safe environment. The factory receives regular audits to ensure they have high standards. We do not believe in child labour and poor working conditions.
The organic cotton fabrics are GOTS certified (Global Organic Textile standard)
Asquith London allows the wearer to buy ethically without sacrificing quality, style and design. We use the softest jersery fabrics that won't shrink, fade, bobble or stretch, so that the pieces can be loved, worn and treasured from season to season.

OUR PACKAGING
Where possible we try not to create waste; our postcards and marketing materials, labels and packaging materials are recycled.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
We aim to listen to our customers; we love your feedback, we’ve designed styles for you, fabrics for you.
We strive to provide quality garments that you can enjoy season after season. We are the opposite of ‘fast disposable fashion’. The Asquith range is designed for yoga and Pilates, but also to work with your daily lifestyle.
I design the range for you. I am inspired by my own yoga practice, my teachers, my lifestyle and requirements and the requirements of all the women I meet who work, play and live a full and busy life.
Asquith London is comprised of a friendly team of people. We believe in excellent customer service, strong communication, openness and honesty in all things.
We love to hear from you with any thoughts or feedback you may have.
