Favorite pieces start with posture
The fashion industry has a major impact on our environment and all its stakeholders. We take this impact seriously: As a company in the fashion industry, we place a high value on treating our planet and all its inhabitants with care. Brands we choose, our interactions with all our stakeholders, and the way we conduct our business are matters close to our hearts. Discrimination of any kind is a no-go for us and has no place at Bijou. We are committed to a healthy, fair, and successful tomorrow— a tomorrow for all of us.
Carefully selected. Fairly considered.
Where Bijou Comes In
As a company with a multi-brand concept, our greatest influence lies in the selection process: We decide which Brands we include in our collection, which materials and qualities we highlight, and which stories we share. In doing so, we look for brands whose values align with Bijou’s and that take responsibility—whether through certified materials, fair production standards, long-lasting quality, or unique artisanal approaches.
Our goal is to provide our customers with guidance and help them make decisions more easily and with greater awareness.
Brands That Think Ahead
NILE
Swiss design, high-quality materials, and a mindful approach to resources: NILE embodies many values that are also important to Bijou. We particularly appreciate the combination of wearable favorites, certified materials, and designs that can be worn for several seasons. A valuable addition to our collection.
Mos Mosh
Mos Mosh embraces current trends without coming across as fleeting. The collections combine modern cuts with high-quality materials that ensure they can be enjoyed well beyond a single season. Most importantly, items that stand out from conventional products due to their social or environmental attributes are specifically labeled and prominently promoted.
Tantä
Rainwear that brings joy: Tantä combines functional materials with colors, shapes, and details that make everyday life more beautiful. The brand is a great fit for Bijou because it shows that weather protection, style, and a more conscious use of resources aren’t mutually exclusive—in fact, they can work very well together.
Handmade & Upcycled
Campomaggi bags, Cofur blouses, or Corazón jewelry: Many of our favorite pieces are handmade. We believe that even small labels should have the chance to make it big.
Labels & Standards Explained Simply
Some of the products and brands in our selection are certified or adhere to recognized material standards. These standards help us better assess environmental, social, and animal welfare considerations. Bijou les Boutiques itself is not certified under these standards—we carry select products from brands that adhere to them.
A standard for textiles made from organically produced natural fibers. It takes into account environmental and social criteria throughout the production chain.
Organic cotton comes from organic farming. Better Cotton is a program that helps cotton producers improve their farming practices, water use, soil health, and working conditions.
This label tests textile materials and components for harmful substances. It provides guidance on the safety of the tested product components.
Wood-based fibers developed with a focus on more responsible sources of raw materials and more resource-efficient manufacturing processes.
These standards apply to recycled materials. They help to better assess the proportion and traceability of recycled fibers.
Animal welfare standards for fibers such as wool, mohair, alpaca, and cashmere. These standards set requirements for animal welfare, land management, and traceability.
