In a nutshell
Started as a vintage store, with sustainability at heart, now a manufacturer and modern brand that also weaves digital and data into the store/changing room experience.
In their words
"Reformation began by selling vintage clothing out of a small Los Angeles storefront in 2009. We quickly expanded into making our own stuff, with a focus on sustainability. Today, we make effortless silhouettes that celebrate the feminine figure and pioneer sustainable practices, focusing on people and progress each step of the way"
Visit Field notes
The store is a minimal 'wow', with plenty of stock and space. Digital displays and changing rooms seem totally in keeping with the concrete/zen setting, and each product is labelled clearly with its environmental footprint.
