My Philosophy
I firmly believe there's commitment between philosophy and reality, as there is between words and actions. My T-Shirt is the embodiment of this commitment: sustainable creativity for us and the environment. How? Read below.
My philosophy is to create sustainable T-shirts in limited pieces, with original designs and high quality made to last over time.
Tops and T-shirts that become artistic pieces, also created from recovered and recycled fabrics, to reduce textile waste and promote a creative, high-quality circular approach.
Craftsmanship, not industrial production.
My T-shirts are hand-drawn, artisan-printed or hand-painted, made in small quantities, and produced using organic cotton or recycled fabrics.
I don’t follow the logic of mass production.
I follow the rhythm of creativity, quality, and respect for materials.
The project started in 2019, when organic cotton was still often confused in Italian with “organic”, which does not mean the same thing.
It has been a slow journey, I admit, because while creating, I was also studying, growing, and learning.
Today, Mia Maglietta has evolved. It will always offer your favorite T-shirt made from truly organic cotton, with many original and authentic stories to tell — but not only that.
Have you ever heard of LCA and Circularity?
It is an approach inspired by nature, aimed at creating objects and processes that are sustainable for the Planet, just like the natural cycles of life.
It is called “natural” because every life that is born and then dies becomes part of the next life, and so on. Everything stays in balance, without waste or unnecessary leftovers.
Unfortunately, since the Industrial Revolution of the 18th century, energy-intensive human activities have caused extreme changes, also due to the destruction of natural ecosystems and the indiscriminate exploitation of animals through intensive farming and agriculture.
With this circular mindset, I introduce T-shirts and tops created as unique pieces or in very limited editions, using recovered fabrics and unsold stock, to reduce textile waste and give new life to materials that are also of excellent quality and made to last.
Conscious customization
For me, personalization also means reducing waste. I create only what is needed, when it is needed.
Each garment is part of a vision of sustainable, circular, and responsible fashion, where aesthetics meet ethics.
So, to give our precious contribution to changing things for the better, let’s buy less, consume less — and better.
Let’s remember that every object has its own life cycle, that it is made using energy and natural resources, and that in the end it will go somewhere.
If you have ideas to share with me, I’m here to listen.
Welcome on board.
