An Untouched World

Untouched World™ is a sustainable fashion and sportswear brand based on the New Zealand lifestyle. Untouched World™ is for men and women who want a natural and organic easy care wardrobe for their every need, that expresses their individual style and unique personality.

Untouched World™ finds its whole philosophy summarised in a symbol representing a Maori Kite, the emblem of an ideal relationship between man and nature. It is the outcome of an art involving natural materials and human skills; it links the earth to the sky, and symbolises a soaring freedom of the spirit.

In November 2007, Untouched World™ became the first fashion company in the world to be given permission by UNESCO to carry the United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (UN DESD) logo on its labelling – one of a small number of organisations internationally accredited.

The labels passion for sustainable design flows through every element of the collections, from buttons (recycled cotton through to sustainably harvested tagua nut), textiles – they have an extensive organic cotton and merino sourcing programme – to where and how each and every garment is produced. Currently the company is focusing on building transparency in their sourcing and fair trade manufacturing initiatives.
