Simply put, fair trade is a way of doing business that ensures workers receive fair wages, work in safe conditions, and are treated with respect. Here’s what we prioritize at Passion Lilie:
- Fair wages: We pay our artisans fair wages, ensuring they can support themselves and their families.

- Empowerment: Fair trade empowers artisans by giving them ownership over their craft, creating opportunities for personal and professional growth.

Yes, Passion Lilie clothes are machine washable, and they’re easy to care for! For the best results:
- Washing:
Use mild detergent and cold water to preserve the integrity of the fabric - Drying:
We recommend line drying your garments instead of using a dryer. Passion Lilie clothing is made from 100% organic cotton and modal (a plant-based fabric), so you may experience around 5% shrinkage if you use a dryer.
Passion Lilie pieces hold their shape beautifully when line-dried, and you most likely won’t need to iron them. Our jersey cotton fabric is especially resistant to wrinkles. If you do need to smooth out any wrinkles:
- Ironing: Use a medium heat setting when ironing.
- Steaming: We recommend using a steamer to avoid direct heat, as it’s gentler on the fabric.

Passion Lilie clothes generally run true to size, but there are some details to keep in mind.
- Our women's bottoms and jersey knit garments are cut a little more generously for a comfortable fit.
- Our men's shirts are slim fit with broad shoulders. If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing up.
- For the most accurate sizing, check out our sizing charts and measure yourself in your bra and underwear to get the best fit. Use a tape measure to calculate your bust, waist, and hips.
