There’s no denying it: the fashion industry is one of the major polluting industries in the world. The first step to change this is to be conscious about it.
At La Semaine Paris, we are on a path towards sustainability together with our suppliers and with our customers. All our actions are part of an audacious plan: become a carbon neutral brand.
Sustainability is a continuous learning journey and there’s so much more coming down the pipe. We see this as the beginning of something epic.
1% for the planet
Giving back 1% for the planet, help us being 1% better. This is part of our positive change. By partnering with 1% for the Planet we are part of a network of businesses and individuals that take responsibility collectively for the environment.

Better said: you are helping to care for this beautiful earth.Thank you all, together we are doing something really special!
Treedom
On our path towards carbon neutrality, we met Treedom, the only company in the world that allows you to plant a tree remotely and follow its growth online. All trees are planted directly by local farmers and bring environmental, social and financial benefits to the communities surrounding them. Through our La Semaine Paris forest, we support women-led communities who dedicate themselves to the cultivation of trees and that, by doing so, contribute to the well being of their community

Materials
We believe in circular economy applied to fashion. Our denim is made of recycled cotton and treated with ozone-based technologies in order to save up to 85% of water. Our swimwear is made in regenerated nylon fibres coming from discarded fishing nets found in oceans. Our knitwear is made with regenerated wool, coming from recycled materials in line with the Global Recycled Standard (GRS).
Packaging
Sustainable, certified, reusable. To bring forth our commitment to creating and producing sustainably, we are ensuring an eco-friendly, plastic-free packaging, made in FSC certified paper and produced in Italy. FSC® certified paper has been harvested in a responsible manner. It stands for Forest Stewardship Council, a non-profit organisation certifying forests around the world to ensure they meet the highest social and environmental standards.
