Sales
Charlotte and Marieke just opened their concept store Charlie + Mary. In their beautiful store you can find JUX and other sustainable brands. The nice interior is made of recycled products: their counter is made from doors, the floor used to be a ceiling and their coffee table used to be a train! These girls know how to recycle. When you’re in Amsterdam go and have a look. Take some time for an organic coffee and pastry. I really like My Paper Bag and the skin care products of (Malin + Goetz). And you should buy something, just to get the Charlie + Mary cotton bag. It’s part of your lifestyle. Congrats Charlotte and Marieke!
Night and Day of Sustainability
On 08.09.09 it was the Night of Sustainability. JUX was present, next to some ministers, famous Dutch people and influentials on sustainability. JUX dressed four of the most sustainable Dutchies for the fashion show. What an experience! The location was beautiful, it was an old train storage hall. The discussions were heavy, even the best informed people disagree on sustainability. The show was awesome. Our four influentials looked beautiful and proud in JUX, while they expressed their opinion on the future of the environment and all. Thanks to WatMooi and Urgenda for the great evening!
