Tela, which means fabric in Filipino, is a homegrown sustainable and ethical fashion brand created to offer sustainable solutions through fabric usage. It was established in 2019 by a 19-year-old student named Alyssa, who sees a future where fashion meets sustainability.
Growing up, she spent summers witnessing how each piece of clothing is cut, stitched and assembled through the hard work of craftsmen behind the scenes. Inspired by this familiarity and love with textiles, as well asΒ kinship among artisans, Tela aims to share this thoughtful exchange between maker and buyer- guaranteeing only to produce a line that is within the spectrum of sustainability.
