Meg is a simple a-line silhouette that packs a real punch.
A little longer at the back so you can rock a short skirt without worrying about sharing your knickers with the world.
Meg also has in-seam pockets in a really lightweight organic cotton - perfect for when you don't know what to do with your hands.
Made from a linen / cotton blend with a stiff drape to help keep her shape. She will soften over time.
Fallen Song is designed by Ellen McKenna, an artist and surface designer based in Melbourne.
Each year 10% of our profits or $1,000 (whichever is higher) are donated to ONE GIRL, to provide an education to girls in the developing world.

SUPPLY CHAIN
At Souten Clothing Co we aim to be 100% transparent. You can read more about each step of the garment creation process below.
FABRIC MANUFACTURING
This fabric is manufactured and printed by Nerida Hansen and her partners in South Korea.
The fabric is digitally printed, as this produces far less waste than traditional full-colour screen printing does.
The fabric is a BCI certified cotton linen blend.
Being
BCI certified means that it comes from trained cotton farmers and producers who are committed to providing more sustainable cotton, also that there is no forced or child labour.
GARMENT MAKING
This garment is made by Segom Pty Ltd.
Segom is a manufacturing agent and manufacturer based in Sydney. It is run by Mogie, who contracts other local makers to construct our garments, as well as making them herself.
TRIMS
The Zippers for our garments come from M.Recht Accessories, in Collingwood, VIC. They maintain close and trusting relationships with both local and international suppliers.
M.Recht is family owned, and has been operating in Melbourne for 60 years. You can read more on their website.
WASHING AND PRESSING
We wash a test-swatch, and calculate any shrinkage. This is incorporated into the sizing of the pattern.
When the garments are delivered to us, we cold hand wash with environmentally friendly products to pre-shrink them. We then line dry them in our garden (or in our dining room in winter), and iron them while watching netflix.

PACKAGING
