/ PURPOSE

When our founder, Grace Beverley, shifted away from fast fashion to a more sustainable approach, she found easy swaps for everything except activewear. Despite the booming industry, it was almost impossible to find activewear that was consciously created with sustainability in mind. And that’s how TALA was born. We’re a female-led brand on a mission to actively solve problems without creating others - for you, the planet or anyone else.

What started with activewear has grown into an entire active-inspired wardrobe for every on-the-go lifestyle. Whether you’re running errands, marathons or both, we design effortless/flattering/high-quality/versatile pieces that support you wherever you go and whatever you’re doing.  We’ve got your back (and your legs, and your bum). All day, everyday. From material to fit to internet-breaking multiwear designs - we’re constantly evolving so both of us (yes, you, reading this) continue to turn heads for all the right reasons. 

We exist to disrupt the current market by offering alternative, more responsibly-made options that give people the choice to shop better. Of course, the most sustainable option is to not shop but that’s not always realistic: leggings wear, stains happen (guilty) and birthday girls need to be treated. Whatever your reasons for shopping, our purpose is to be your next best thing because we care about our impact on the planet.

THE WASHING MACHINE PROJECT

A grassroots UK based social enterprise, The Washing Machine Project's mission is to reduce the demands of unpaid domestic labour on women and girls in displaced, remote and low-income communities by providing accessible, off-grid washing solutions. To do this, they created a world first flat-packable and human-powered washing machine called Divya. From talks and demonstrations at HQ to in-store takeovers to spread the word even more, we’re proud of our ongoing collaboration with this amazing group of people.
