Founder's Letter
"Fashion has always been my passion, but I never knew I would once get the chance to become a fashion designer. To be honest, the chance did not just arrive – I had to create this opportunity for myself.
It all happened in 2015, soon after the birth of my second daughter. I could say my new role as a mother empowered me to try on another new role – one of a fashion designer. Since being respectful to everyone and everything is one of my core values in life, creating a sustainable fashion brand was really the only option. I have an affinity for simple and classic designs that don’t go out of fashion. At the same time, I put a lot of thought into details that make garments special and give them a modern feel, be it a flattering cut of a neckline, a special fabric colour or the way delicate fabrics feel on your skin.
For me, Mila.Vert represents the story of empowerment, of following your passion and being kind to yourself and to others. And this is how I want to make you feel. In case you were wondering, I am only kind of Mila. My name is Tina and the name Mila.Vert was inspired by the name of my first daughter. Every single piece of Mila.Vert clothing represents me, so I want every single piece to be kind to you. At the same time, it should also be kind to nature and the people who made it – and these are the core values that the brand is built upon."

Ein reines Frauenteam
Langsam aber sicher wuchs Mila.Vert als Marke und mit seinem Team. Aktuell arbeiten zwei Frauen an der Seite der Gründerin, weitere weibliche Teammitglieder stoßen gelegentlich hinzu. Die Tatsache, dass ausschließlich Frauen für die Marke arbeiten, bringt ein tiefes, persönliches Verständnis dafür mit sich, was, warum und für wen sie Mode kreieren möchten. Die vielfältigen Teammitglieder haben jeweils ihre zugewiesenen Rollen und Verantwortlichkeiten, je nachdem, was sie am besten können – die besten Ergebnisse entstehen jedoch immer dann, wenn sie zusammenarbeiten, um Hindernisse zu überwinden, ihre Ziele zu erreichen und weiterhin nachhaltige Mode einem globalen Publikum zugänglich zu machen.
