TALK ABOUT IT!

Whether you're in our neighborhood in beautiful rural Central New York or not, we get together online all the time  for real talk about what covers our body's largest organ - the clothing and bath and beauty products directly touching our skin. 
Themis and Thread's Community Supported Fashion Facebook Group
​is a great place to talk about personal style, custom fashion, sustainability, events, fashion activism, and to get exclusive deals.

The Beauty Justice Facebook Group
is a resource based group chock full of information about safer bath and beauty products, health, advocacy, legislation and transparency.  This is another one of Themis and Thread designer Jesse Junko Beardslee's passion projects, inspired by Beautycounter, a counterculture #BetterBeauty movement and Silk Naturals, a clean cosmetic company in Trumansburg, New York.  We love using makeup from these innovative and progressive companies for our models!

FIGHT WASTE

Fighting for recycling can feel like an uphill, thankless battle.  But like any other exercise in responsibility you've got to do it for the cause, not the applause!​  On average Americans throw away 80 pounds of fabric every year, 
not donates,
throws away. 
​There are so many reasons you should never throw fabric items away.  There are also so many solutions, even for clothing and fibers you wouldn't think anyone would ever want!  Fashion Revolution Week 2019 we partnered with Blue Jeans Go Green and Habitat for Humanity for a Denim Drive showcasing the denim recycling process we can all participate in!  Fight with Fashion by recycling your clothing/fabric/fiber waste.

fight for recycling

Donate your unwanted clothing, fabric and other fiber goods
​Recycle your old jeans, any condition, any color, into denim insulation
Make paper
Upcycle existing garments!

What folks have said:

Carolina Cantor, Co-Founder/ Fashion Director ShopEthica.com
"It's so heartening to encounter more and more designers who are helping expand and advance the field of ethical fashion, and we truly admire your commitment to sustainability and local sourcing / production"

Steve Sierigk, Founder Acorn Designs
"Keeping businesses heart based is necessary for planetary healing."

Joannah Fine, Fine Line Henna Designs, on her Liberty Dress
"I just got it and I absolutely love it!  It's an incredible design, I love the cut out for the lower back."

Mary Fanara, online shopper
"I believe that products 'Made in America' are so smart.  Why Tommy Hillfiger, Ralph Lauren The Gap...  these All-American 'looks' are made overseas when we need American factories, bewliders me?  I am very proud of your commitment."
