Our Story
We create with intention and reverence. Tailor-crafted designer attire, each piece born in-house within our Cape Town atelier, honors a commitment to conscious, refined artistry. Here, the traditions of heritage design and forward-thinking innovation meet, woven together with an unwavering dedication to sustainable elegance.
Our creations are not merely garments; they are meaningful expressions, crafted to be delicate yet enduring, thoughtfully designed to accompany you with purpose. We work with the world’s finest materials—hemp & organic cotton, cruelty-free cork leather & recycled PET felt—infusing each piece with a luxury rooted not in excess, but in balance. True luxury, for us, is found in the harmony of superior design and lasting quality, where style aligns.
A commitment to a world where impeccable style and ethical responsibility live side by side.

Cork Leather
Our handmade shoes and accessories are crafted from 100% cruelty-free cork leather, a material as remarkable as it is sustainable. Cork is the world’s only naturally water-resistant and biodegradable fabric, offering a rare combination of beauty, durability, and eco-consciousness.
By embracing cork leather, we are able to create elegant, functional pieces that embody both style and sustainability, ensuring that your fashion choices make a positive impact on the planet. Each item in our footwear and accessories collection reflects our commitment to responsible luxury, designed for those who seek sophistication without compromise.
Hemp & Organic Cotton
We are deeply committed to using sustainably sourced hemp & organic cotton for our garments and accessories. Each piece is a testament to our dedication to both the planet and traditional craftsmanship. Locally and ethically produced in Cape Town, South Africa, our creations embody the highest standards of artisanal excellence, crafted with care and intention.
By choosing our collection of premium, sustainable clothing and accessories, you are not only embracing timeless elegance but also supporting local industries and artisans. Every purchase contributes to a more ethical, conscious future, making a positive impact on both the environment and the communities we cherish.
Recycled Plastic
We believe that luxury and sustainability can exist in perfect harmony, producing high-quality pieces that leave a minimal footprint on the planet. This philosophy is brought to life in our collection of bags and accessories crafted from recycled plastic felt.
By reimagining materials that would otherwise contribute to landfills, we transform them into beautifully designed, functional products that embody eco-conscious elegance. Each item speaks to our dedication to sustainability without sacrificing style or sophistication.
Fix It
In a world where the broken is often discarded, at Sage & Sunday, we see an opportunity for renewal. Too often, a tear or fray marks the end of a garment’s life, perpetuating the cycle of consumption and waste. Yet, we believe each repair tells a story—one of resilience and enduring beauty, elevating the value of the piece beyond mere material worth.
Every carefully mended seam, each stitch that restores life to a beloved fabric, transforms the old into something renewed and rich in character. The art of mending is our homage to sustainability, a craft we uphold with great care and dedication.

from 738 reviewsThese shoes are so comfortable I don't want to wear anything else! They also look beautiful and I love that they are made from natural sustainable material. So happy with my purchase!
The design and drape and feel of this dress is just an overall masterpiece.
The perfect dress doesn't exi... love this so much.
My order - wrap top and skirt - arrived this morning and it's the best way to start the week. The packaging is so beautiful, too. Really appreciate your attention to detail.
Love what S&S is doing for the sustainable fashion movement. Congratulations on your Twyg Award last week.
I officially subscribe to the eco-conscious lifestyle and my first order of business is to order this wrap skirt.
Visited your atelier this weekend and everything, including the store itself, is so beautiful. Was really difficult to make a decision but these shorts caught my eye so I did what I had to do and left your store smiling.
My wedding's coming up in Jan and when I saw this outfit I decided I was buying it for my groomsmen. They're gonna dig it.
I strongly feel like you can't buy only the shorts or only the shirt 'cause it looks so good as the pair. So happy with my new S&S look.
Thanks S&S. This is officially my new favourite pair of shorts, in my new favourite colour.
Eco-conscious clothing is the future. Love the effortless simplicity of this design, and I especially love what hemp linen feels like.
Every guy needs to own at least one pair of classy shorts. I've officially peaked.
This shirt in this colour is literally a blue-eyed boy's dream. The material also just feels exceptionally light but super durable.
This bag is design perfection! From straps to cork leather to brass finishings and logo placement, it's actually exquisite!
I love Matthias Matthee and this collab just makes so much sense to me. Such a beautifully designed bag, wow!
