ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY

In and out of Astral Apparel Angel Armoury I am passionate about eradicating waste and operating in a fashion as environmentally sound as possible. I am not a ‘fast’ business. I consider my collections ageless. I possess no surplus stock or materials. My studio and despatch office are free of single use materials. If I generate any waste that cannot be recycled by traditional waste streams, I let said waste to eco waste management companies. All metal scraps are melted for reuse, indeed my own financial homeostasis is something to be tended to. Not a single offcut goes to waste or landfill. My packaging is recyclable and crafted by recycled materials, utilising environmentally friendly ink. My dispatch and packing materials are biodegradable.

Due to the frivolous nature of my wares, it is paramount that my environmental impact is harmonious at the very least. I consider my work a reflection of myself, so it is essential that my values are mirrored if I am to move with accountability and integrity.

I will only collaborate with traders who values are in alignment with my own. Environmentally speaking, this means sourcing crystals and gemstones cut by hand. Minimising environmental impact and protecting local people, who I believe in turn to be conglomerates of the environment. This requires local traders investing in local communities as opposed to gargantuan corporations. Instead of large scale mining, the crystals, metals and gemstones incorporated at Astral Apparel Angel Armoury are obtained by hand, thus retaining value in all senses of the word. My collaborating traders must abide and honour environmental impact as well as licensing and pollution control.

I am dedicated to learning and developing to maintain my business as a force for good, as far as vanity, materialism and expression goes.

Trafalgar Boots

£120.00

During summer 2020 lockdown I had a dream that I worked at the National Portrait Gallery (an alternate universe version) because we were all dressed in things sort of ressembling these shoes. I was compelled I recreate what I wore in the dream as I was sad to wake up without them. Only in the dream, they were green moccasin style with gold embroidery. Anyway- these are perfect for weddings, seasonal festivities or just to inject some glamour in the supermarket. I also offer custom embellishments for shoes you already own, if you have a pair of boots or shoes you would like to have dazzled- send a message to nancygorman@astralapparel.co.uk and I'll be happy to be of service.
