Pure Pod stands as a testament to ethical and sustainable fashion, bringing together premium sustainable textiles and artisan craftsmanship since 2007. Their collections, celebrating Australian design, are ethically produced using organic materials such as cottons, denims, and bamboo, to meet the needs of women who not only care about style but also the impact of their clothing choices. With a commitment to transparency, Pure Pod strives for traceable manufacturing practices and enlightens consumers on making environmentally conscious choices.
The soul of Pure Pod is its founder, Kelli Donovan, whose lifelong creative journey and dedication to sustainable fashion stem from an early love for the environment and ethical design. Tracy Lee, with her unique visual storytelling and Jeanette Donovan, the supportive matriarch, contribute to the brand’s heartwarming narrative.
