How Kristi Soomer created a Versatile and Sustainable fashion brand-L Ep 73

<p><strong>Encircled </strong>is a slow fashion brand that does it all. Founded by Kristi Soomer, Encircled is one of the few apparel brands that is a Certified B. Corp, which puts the planet and people before profits. To give you some perspective, there are only 9 apparel brands in Canada that are Certified. B Corps, and only 4 of these are female-founded/majority female owned B.Corps. </p><p>Encircled’s factories are located in Toronto, and they are OEKO-TEX(R) 100 Certified, meaning that no harmful substances are used to make their clothing, just sustainably sourced, ultra-soft fabrics and a whole lot of love. They are also super transparent about each of their fabrics, which are posted online here. </p><p>Encircled strongly encourages us to minimize our carbon footprint, so the brand offers versatile multi-way clothing that provides endless wardrobe options. For instance, their popular Revolve Dress is a beautiful garment that can be worn 6 different ways!</p><p><strong>Where to Find Kristi Soomer</strong></p><p><strong>Website: </strong><a href="https://www.encircled.ca/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.encircled.ca</a></p><ul><li><strong>Instagram:</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/encircled_/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@encircled_</a></li><li><strong>Facebook:</strong> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/getencircled" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">encircled</a></li><li><strong>Twitter:</strong> <a href="https://twitter.com/encircled" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@encircled</a></li></ul><br/><p><strong>SPONSOR</strong></p><p>This episode is sponsored by<strong> </strong><a href="http://www.entireproductions.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Entire Productions</strong></a>- Creating events (both in-person and virtual) that don't suck! and <a href="http://www.entireproductionsmarketing.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Entire Productions Marketing</strong></a>- carefully curated premium gifting a
