Our Values
OUR VALUES
Our core values at Inspired Floral Designs NYC are of high importance to us. We are here to bring our customers the very best original, exquisite, sustainable and ethically made floral scarves, while planting 3 trees with every order. Any business, whether a large or small, impacts the world around us depending on what we do each day.
Ethical Practices
Our manufacturer takes pride in the commitment to sustainability and ethical production. They have strict ethical standards in all aspects of the production process and promote a diverse and inclusive work environment where every employee feels valued, respected, and able to contribute their best for the business. That is important to us.
Sustainability
Please note that production of our scarves is sustainable, with minimal water usage and reduced fabric waste output. Our designs are produced by a wonderful company that make sustainability a priority. All scarves are made under one roof.
FSC certified materials used; OEKO-TEX Standard 100 fabric and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Ink, GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified ink
We hold no stock, nor do we produce products beyond need. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions. All scarves and totes are made to order. The company we work with gives leftover fabric remnants to crafters and DIY-ers who want a creative challenge. The offcuts then get repurposed. Nothing is wasted.
Quality
All creative and design work is done from our space here in NYC and then produced in London. Each scarf is hand-made using a stunning silk alternative called (vegan) Georgette, a fabric that feels like silk but has more durability and is wrinkle resistant. We do have a minimal number of scarves that are made from Mulberry silk, also known as Habotai silk. These scarves are made upon special request.
Slow Fashion (but worth the wait)
Each scarf is hand-made. Because they are made to order, it takes more time to arrive in your hands, but it is definitely worth the wait. Production usually takes 1-2 weeks, then we personally inspect each product. Allow another 3-7 days for shipping.
Digital Printing
With environmental consciousness in mind, our scarves are printed completely with water-based inks. No chemicals or solvents are used. The heat fixing procedure fixes the colors and prints, avoiding the downsides of steaming, such as excess or contaminated water returning into the waste system. All production along with printing and fulfillment is conducted in one facility. Because the printing is done directly onto this beautiful vegan fabric, colors emerge bold and stunning. Print details and fine lines are depicted clearly and sharply.

Plant 3 Trees
With every order we donate $1.00 to Trees for the Future - Trees that end hunger and poverty through the Dollar Donation Club. For every order 3 trees are planted.
This is a solution that helps people, the land, and the climate at the same time. Forest Gardens help people living in extreme poverty to feed their families and grow a better future for themselves and their communities.
