Today we wish an inspiring International Woman’s Day to everyone in The R Collective family.
We wanted to take the time to shine a spotlight on our own hard-working female-led team, and learn a little bit more about the issues they are passionate about, and the inspiring women who have influenced them.
Clothing’s biggest climate impacts come from consumer care - how we look after and launder our clothes - and fabric production. That is why The R Collective is collaborating with Electrolux, the global leading manufacturer of sustainable clothes’ care solutions, on a washing machine giveaway within Electrolux’s UltimateCare range to reinforce the importance of sustainable care.

Today marks the 100 year anniversary of ‘Women’s Equality Day’. While this Amendment was of course a wonderful step in the right direction, unilateral equality was still out of range.
Yet today, we embrace this day as an opportunity to brush up on women’s history and celebrate the trailblazers who moved the dial closer to equality for all women and girls.
