Welcome to LIZ JACOB

With so many clothing options already available for kids, why did we choose to come with yet another option?
Liz Jacob is for those parents who value handmade handlooms and simplistic elegance. Our unique kids wear range appeals to a mindset that values artisanal work and pays attention to the handcrafted story behind the garment. They enjoy the organic soft mull fabrics that we use, and have evolved design sensibilities leaning towards a pastel palette and simple silhouettes that don’t scream out loud for attention.
The Liz Jacob range has evolved over the last three years to become everything that it committed to be. We source the softest of cottons that children will love. We combine artistic techniques of block printing, screen printing, hand paintings, applique and embroidery to create a range that is fun, fresh and creative. And, we support an artisan community and feel honoured to contribute to their livelihood. Everything we do, we do it with utmost sincerity and respect for everyone involved.
And, what’s more important, we do limited runs to ensure your child is wearing something really exclusive. This is the reason you don’t find our range everywhere.

Liz Jacob has been listed by Vogue India as one of India’s best in kidswear. The brand has also been recognised as ‘Best Eco-friendly Apparel Brand’ many times through awards from Kidsstoppress, the leading parenting website in India. Besides these, our work has been featured on Your Story, Hindustan Times, Mint Lounge, Malayala Manorama Online and CNBC-TV18.

Our Sustainability Journey

We strongly believe that sustainability is a journey and not a destination. It is impossible for brands to claim 100% sustainability, but one can always keep the effort button on.

At Liz Jacob, we have our ears to the ground when it comes to sustainability. We resonate with the philosophy that we do not own the Earth and that we merely borrow it from our children. For this planet to sustain itself for the next many generations, we have to stop wounding it (literally).

Here are few steps we have taken already:

  • Use of natural fabrics only. We also use organic cotton, rain water harvested cotton and other sustainable fabrics developed from fibres of Bamboo, Aloe, Rose petal etc in few of our collections
  • Natural plant and vegetable based pigments as far as possible. It is quite difficult to get printed fabrics in natural pigments, but all our dyes are AZO free and less harmful to the planet
  • Zero waste projects where fabric scraps are upcycled into accessories instead of contributing to hazardous landfills. This also provides employment to local women who are trained in embroidery by us.

  • Our studio follows the ten guiding principles outlined by Fair Trade for running an ethical business

  • We have minimised the use of plastics in our craft and its packaging. Buttons used are made from natural materials like coconut, shell and mother of pearl. Brand packaging is moving towards FSC certified paper and bio-degradable materials.

  • We are conscientious about use of resources from water, power, paper and fabric. Fabric is hand-cut in order to reduce fabric wastage and in many of our styles, we have moved to a pre-order model to reduce unnecessary manufacturing and wastage.
  • We are proudly associated with many artisans who specialise in block and screen-printing, natural dyeing experts, and hand and machine embroidery and contribute to their livelihood regularly
  • Our block printed and natural dye range is done out of plant based pigments only
  • We also collaborate with a few moms who are talented in embroidery hoping to give them a platform to showcase their creativity.
  • We also aim to reduce wastage/dead stock/old stock through a strict control over ‘Inventory Management’. Restocking as and when needed and a ‘Made to Order’ range helps us to make and scale only as per demand.
