We know — it’s a bold statement. But we mean it. In a world dominated by 2-day deliveries and mass production, we choose to slow down. As a small, made-to-order clothing brand, we believe that fashion should be thoughtful, not rushed. That every piece should hold a story — not just a price tag. Over the past year, we’ve seen the rise of fast fashion and with it, the sharp increase in textile waste, pollution, and disregard for the planet. And while we know we’re just one brand, what truly makes a difference is you — the consumer, the conscious buyer, the change-maker.
So today, let’s talk about what makes us different — and why we may not be for everyone.
At Fancy Pastels, everything you see is made to order, which means your vacation wear doesn’t exist until you choose it. The process begins when you place an order. Only then do we source the raw cotton or muslin silk fabric, begin hand-block printing, allow the colors to set and dry, and finally cut, sew, and finish the garment before shipping it out. This process takes about 15–20 days. Why? Because we don't mass-produce. We don’t believe in waste. We believe in craftsmanship.
Each of our pieces, made from flowy cotton summer dresses, co-ord sets for women, and dreamy midi dresses, handmade by skilled artisans who take pride in their work. It’s slow fashion at its finest. No factory rush. No seasonal dumping. Just thoughtfully handcrafted clothing that feels as good to wear as it does to create. Whether you're curating a holiday capsule wardrobe, packing for your next trip, or looking for a timeless travel dress, we’re here to offer something real: vacation wear that celebrates stories, skills, and sustainability.
If you’re someone who needs their clothes yesterday, we may not be the right fit. But if you believe that fashion should be purposeful, that each thread should carry the warmth of human hands and a little bit of heart, then welcome to our world. We may be small, but we care deeply. About the planet, about people, and about the power of thoughtful fashion.
So, if this resonated with you, don’t stop here. Explore our collection of breathable cotton summer dresses, holiday dresses, and breezy co-ord sets. Whether you’re dressing for a beach escape or a café stroll, we’ve got a travel dress for every kind of adventure. Choose handcrafted clothing that feels like sunshine, stitched with soul.
