Deux Mains was created in a time of disaster, yet thrives in its wake. When a catastrophic earthquake decimated Haiti in 2010, Deux Mains founder and creative director Julie Colombino-Billingham experienced a country at its worst. Witnessing the desperate need for dignified employment in Haiti became the catalyst and greatest inspiration behind the brand. Now, with each collection, we honor the ancestral wisdom, talent, and perseverance Julie found in the people of Haiti. At our core, we believe in the power of thoughtful design, well-intentioned and carefully crafted goods, and the power we each hold as consumers. That’s why we are proud to take fashion forward by offering truly meaningful choice. When you choose Deux Mains, you choose safe working conditions, a liveable wage, health insurance, and access to education for Haitian people. You choose a solar-powered, women-owned factory. You choose found or made materials, traditional craft methods and a circularity mindset. You choose high quality, timeless designs that can become wardrobe staples for years. You choose fashion that's designed to do good.
