Adorable yet incredibly sexy, Bazsarózsa’s New York-made organic cotton lingerie is perfect to don this summer. As seen on Ecouterre, the line of comfortable panties, camisoles, and underwire-free bras boasts impeccable design and attention to detail.
Bazsarózsa is all about design first. “Living consciously is naturally a part of my life,” designer Enikö Bázsa told TreeHugger. Bázsa continues, below.
When I decided to launch Bazsarózsa it was never a question of whether to use organic or not. I love that my customers are drawn to Bazsarozsa aesthetically then discover it’s organic and manufactured ethically. I like to look at the organic factor as a bonus rather than as a badge.
The line is made in New York City with organic cotton jersey sourced from a mill in the United States. Their dye house works with low-impact dyes, as opposed to vegetable dyes, since they are “great in theory, but do not last,” according to the designer.
When it comes to garment care and ensuring the longevity of the lingerie, Bazsarózsa suggests hand washing each piece with organic soap and drying flat.
Conveniently available online, the price point ranges from around $120 for a bra to $65 for panties. As a spokesperson for the brand told TreeHugger, the higher cost is due to the local manufacturing in New York. They are however, looking into alternatives for future collections: “No matter what we do, we will be sure that it is made in an ethical way in a pleasant environment by people who enjoy what they do.”
