UPDATE: Thank you to everyone for your support! Our first run sold out within a few hours. The second run is ready now. For our international clients, we have now added an assorted 10 pack with free worldwide shipping.

Our M001 Mask Project is a threefold initiative during the COVID-19 crisis to help feed Melbourne’s most vulnerable families, keep our seamstresses busy at our local factory and serve you, our amazing clients and friends.

Our goal is to serve our community and our clients, which means we will not be taking any profits from this project. 100% of the profits of our masks will be donated to Foodbank Victoria. You can read more about our project below.

Keeping Our Local Factory Busy

Our Melbourne Factory have seen a huge portion of production orders either cancelled or pushed back to later in the year. As of last week, Informale was one of two local labels still continuing to place orders as planned, and as a result a significant portion of their small team of seamstresses may be stopping work. We want to do everything we can to keep them busy and getting paid.

Foodbank Victoria

During this crisis, Charities around the world are facing existential crises as funding dries up and the number of vulnerable individuals and families increases due to lockdowns and layoffs. In order for us to have the most direct and significant impact as possible, we have decided to make our donation to local charity Foodbank Victoria. Their mission is to fight hunger by distributing food and groceries to more than 450 charities in Victoria (the State in which our city is located), support vital food relief programs including community pantries, mobile soup vans and emergency food hampers. They also provide healthy food supplies to more than 1000 schools across our State.
