Raw Materials

As a mother of five, Celia found it difficult to source high quality yet affordable children’s clothing that was uniquely beautiful and durable enough to be passed on to younger siblings. Using personal experiences from raising her own family, Celia was able to create a range that embraced the practicality mothers need, without compromising on aesthetics. 

In recent years sustainability has been a growing focus point, with people changing consumption habits to help benefit the environment. As consumers, we are now looking at the products we use with more scrutiny, and prioritising what is healthy for our families and healthy for the world. Using natural materials has always been a priority in our collections, opting for organic and clean fibres from socially responsible sources. Some products must contain traces of synthetic fibres (like elastane, or polyamide for outerwear) to function and be long-lasting, but that only amounts to a very small part of our collections.

Whilst we are not perfect, we are trying to do what we can to become more conscious in our collections. Implementing small changes can have a big effect, with our eCommerce bags fully recyclable, and created using 20% recycled material.

It is a no brainer that natural fibre clothing is less toxic to the environment than synthetic fibres – that is why we use cotton, linen, silk, wool, and cashmere in our products. Natural fibres are essentially plant materials, which means they will eventually decompose. We also use organic cotton, which is significantly more eco-friendly and uses fewer pesticides.

An organic composite material produced as an inner shell layer; our mother of pearl buttons add that final delicate touch to a La Coqueta outfit. Extremely strong, resilient, and incredibly beautiful; our mother of pearl buttons have an eye-catching iridescent shimmer. We have an appreciation for the finer things in life and sometimes the smallest of details can add that final touch to a beautiful outfit.

We firmly believe that less is more, favouring the simplest traditional features for an added measure of elegance. Our hair accessories are handmade at a Spanish family atelier that has been producing together since the 1970s, with the grandfather still handcrafting our special pieces.

We have an exquisite range of hair garlands in our Ceremony Collection which are produced from bunches of gypsophila (Baby’s-Breath) that have been grown and dried out during Easter in Spain and delicately woven and intertwined with miniature fabric flowers. 

It can take up to a week to hand produce one of our hairbands, demonstrating the love, devotion and sense of history that goes into every piece. We are proud to work with Spanish families that take pride in their heritage and have a passion for traditional craftsmanship. We have an appreciation for the finer things in life and sometimes the smallest of details can add that final touch to a beautiful outfit.

Shop consciously with our seasonal swimwear pieces, cut from recycled material that is created from plastic waste and fishing nets salvaged from the ocean. Recycled polyester helps to keep our seas clean and landfills empty, plus less energy is used to create recycled bottle polyester yarn than is needed to create brand new polyester yarn from oil.
