My studio space in Darwin is where AYLOR garments get made, I think it is great to show where the pieces are made, it adds another story to the garment you are purchasing. Knowing where a garment is made is paramount as it starts to unravel the ethics and standards of that garment. A picture of the location or of the maker can also add value to a piece as it connects the hand made aspect which often gets lost in a garment. Sewing machines may be vital for sewing garments, but the people behind the machine put in the concentration and time needed to create the garments we take for granted everyday. Society has dictated a lose in ownership of where things come from. So next time you put on a piece of clothing, ask yourself where is this made and who made it?
