At a time when the need to improve the future of our planet only grows with each passing day, few clothing companies — and even fewer children’s brands — are infusing ethical fashion and sustainability into the very fabric of their ethos. Inspired by her international experience — professionally and personally — Kim Slicklein, social entrepreneur, humanitarian and mother, founded Macrae Skye around a clear mission: to empower parents to choose stylish yet ethically made clothing, celebrating both a child’s individuality and global diversity.
