Shattered Tradition

'Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months' Quote by Oscar Wilde.

Our new 'Shattered Tradition' Collection is now available.

Dare we say it....... Like totally tubular, the 80's are back!

Inspired by the 80's, for Autumn/Winter 2010 wardrobe, it's about allure with loads of attitude. Bring back the power! Least we forget the shoulder pads, legwarmers, off the shoulder tops and double denim. If it shines or shimmers, wear it this season! Adorn yourself with bold and outrageous accessories.

A story created with embellished works of art, combining designer weaves, rivets and metals. Coloured shady tones and moods of Black and Mist.

Basket Origin

Just where do 1260 Chic source many of the gorgeous baskets offered? A small Moroccan village of approximately 300 people located in the Essaouria Province where the art of weaving baskets is the community’s main source of income. The business is a family oriented activity, based out of each artisan’s home or communal area, including both men and women.

With continued trading in Morocco, 1260 Chic are able to support independent family businesses and co-operatives. Our continued business enables artisans to move from income insecurity and poverty, to economic development self-sufficiency and ownership.

Take a look at our baskets on offer and remember how you can help support our artisans. http://www.1260chic.com/

Green to Go

Our environmental 'foot print' is always something that 1260 Chic are ever conscious of. We can be passionate about the environment without strapping ourselves to a whaling ship.

Going green is not as simple as it sounds and goes well beyond finding a good steady supply of eco-materials or textiles. 1260 Chic wanted to ensure its eco-friendly tag is more than a marketing catch cry and reinforce maintainable practices across design and production. 1260 Chic French-styled baskets are sourced from Morocco, which is still a very traditional society. Our market baskets are made from natural Palm Leaf and created in a traditional and environmentally-friendly manner.

Eco-friendly baskets are the 'eco chic' way to define personal style for the 'eco-minded' fashion consumer wanting to go green.
