We have lots of exciting projects and events coming up for Fashion Revolution Week 2019 – we’d love those of you local to Brighton/Sussex to join us. Sustainable fashion + shopping locally + educating yourself = conscious consumerism at it’s best
The sudden change in temperature means winter is officially approaching and it has got us yearning for cosy winter essentials like our velvet dungarees and cosy coats. We’ve teamed up with Zola Amour to give you a Sustainable Fashion Autumn Lookbook 2018.
Emperor’s team members Cecily & Louisa have recently launched a feminist platform called Sister Society. Lou sat down with them to find out how it started & what it’s all about.

We start the leg length measurement from the waist as most of our designs are high-waisted. Locate your waistline which is the narrowest part of your torso: it’s helpful to pull your top to be tight against the body so you can locate the narrowest point.
Place the tape measure at your waistline and measure down the leg until you find the point at which you want your garment to end.
For instance: A mini-skirt may finish above the knee whilst a pencil skirt traditionally finishes just below the knee.
Remember it’s up to you how long you want the length of your garment to be!
We can always take a hem up to make your garment shorter but it’s far trickier to make a garment longer so if you’re unsure it’s always safer to measure a little longer than shorter.

Place the tape measure at your waistline and pass the tape measure between your legs.
Where the tape measure reaches your waistline in the centre of your back is your rise measurement.
We’d recommend getting a friend to help or to stand in front of a mirror to take this measurement to ensure you are reaching your waistline at the back and not reaching too high or too low.
Place the tape measure at the centre of your collarbones at the base of your neck and measure down the torso until you find the point at which you want your garment to end.
Our Crop-top is designed to end around the waistline + our Tee is designed to end around the hips.
