MAKING THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE ONE WOMAN AT A TIME.
BECAUSE WE GIVE A DAMN!

Press coverage
"I love when a dress mimics art, and that's definitely the case with this made-to-order sustainable dress from Bastet Noir. I love every aspect of how this dress is designed. From the adaptable bow straps and the semi-sweetheart neckline to the wraparound skirt, it's the dreamiest dress I've ever owned. - Jasmine Fox-Suliaman"
"Daniela Milosheska founded Bastet Noir to be a sustainable, zero-waste clothing label whose designs are made to order specifically to client measurements (and are still affordable). Their clothing items that are made from 100% cotton or linen will up your Zoom meeting game, but will offer the right amount of breathability the next time you travel somewhere with a warm climate. Be sure to look at their Lampe and Diane dresses, as well as the Pentha jumpsuit."
"@bastetnoir creates bespoke pieces for your wardrobe that suit your personal style and designed to fit you perfectly. They believe in responsible fashion and have established a no-waste policy. Each item is made to order to reduce waste and promote sustainability. A small, local community of women manufacture these items, resulting in a smaller carbon footprint—and the materials are sourced from deadstock fabrics! Every three months Bastet Noir focuses on a cause or charity to support which they donate a portion of their profits!"

"There’s no better feeling in the world than taking the time to sit down and reflect on what you’ve done in three years, who you’ve become and how you’ve evolved as a person. It’s the best feeling in the world, and that’s what makes the hard days durable and sometimes even annoyingly fun."
