Your Clothes are Trying to Tell you Something
We recently conducted a survey of 57 pieces of Surya clothing, and asked them to describe themselves and what they wanted for their future.
Turns out they're not exactly shy 🤗
Read what they want you to know ⇣
This one wants you to stop pretending jeans are comfortable.
Our velvet pants are begging you to call it as it is – if something cuts you in half, restricts movement and they're difficult to put on (and get off), they're officially uncomfortable my friend.
It's not always about size, it's often cut and fabric.
Find a pair of pants that you slip into and don't have to fight to breathe. And that you just find yourself touching the fabric often.
This one wants to raise your standards.
Our Tibetan wrap dress says too many of us are accepting the bare minimum as the new normal.
If your clothing doesn't have a unique or interesting design, premium fabric and those small attention to detail qualifiers, find a new brand.
Clothes that are hyper fashionable this season, are made using artificial fabrics, tend to fall apart in the wash and are very cheap ... well they're single use items that we call fast fashion.
This one wants to grow old with you.
Our wrap skirt is confident that it will be with you for many, many moons, for 3 reasons;
The classic, timeless design means it won't go out of fashion, and you won't get bored or sick of it.
We've perfected how to properly tie a wrap skirt so that there's no loose ends to ruin the look.
The cotton fabric is beautifully woven, and heavy enough to last the distance.
This one makes complete strangers tell you how much they love your outfit.
Our Juanita overalls vow to work as hard as your accessories (and your attitude!) do to create a striking impression while you're out and about.
While we don't dress for others, isn't it nice to know that strangers on the street think you look that fabulous, they go out of their way to let you know!
(True story, read some reviews).
This one wants to prove that keeping warm needn't be itchy or bulky.
Our cropped merino vest wants you to know that while some brands do indeed make their vests from thick, scratchy wool, this isn't one of them.
Our merino wool is much finer than regular sheep wool, so it doesn't irritate the skin the same way.
It also means a single knit (rather than the typical double knit) is perfectly sufficient to provide toasty warmth.
This one wants to help you decide what to wear, every single day.
Our Freedom Pants are so sure of themselves, they're willing to bet you choose to wear them every day.
Not just because they're super comfortable and made from organic fabric; it's mainly because these pants are that versatile, they're literally perfect for absolutely anything you want to do.
From a shopping day out to a walk on the beach, from yoga asana to weight lifting (yes, someone did this), from wearing them while 8.5 months pregnant to reading a book on the lounge.
You could even – nah, don't swim in them, that's about it.
This one wants to make your everyday feel a little dreamier.
Our velvet maxi skirt is avoiding the word 90's for a reason - it's not the 90's anymore. Others have used this term to describe this skirt, but we don't like to.
While we agree it looks fab with Dr Martens, we mostly love the lush, full length fabric, the low waistband with draw string and subtle drop shape.
Whaaat?
This one wants to say yes! to all your amazing adventures.
Our corduroy overalls are up for absolutely anything – and they're proud of it!
Made from sturdy cotton fabric and boasting handy – and functional – pockets, these overalls will happily accompany you to wherever your day / week takes you.
This one wants to make you smile more often.
Our dungaree dress is absolutely not saying you don't smile enough, it just reckons you could smile more. And what a better opportunity than popping on a flattering dress in a bright colour that disguises itself as a pair of overalls on the top half!
All the benefits of an apron style cover-all, but ... in a dress!
(It's actually the clothes that you don't wear in your wardrobe that tells you the most).
Until next time,
Mel Xx
