The fashionABLE mission is to create sustainable business for Africans so they aren’t dependent upon charity, but instead earn the dignity of a job. We offer opportunity to everyone, with a primary focus on empowering women. When we invest in a woman, statistics demonstrate that she will have a life-changing impact on her family and community… and herself.
fashionABLE Beginnings While living in Ethiopia, Barrett saw how extreme poverty was forcing an extraordinary number of young girls and women to make awful choices to earn money. The solution was obvious – these women wanted to be empowered with opportunity, so he created a business that would give them a job. By empowering Africans with jobs, the fashionABLE approach is proving to be groundbreaking in how we address solutions to poverty. Through your purchase, you are ABLE to provide opportunity, and a woman is ABLE to have a new choice.

Leather is fashionABLE’s first expansion beyond our original line of scarves. fashionABLE started with 3 women from Ethiopia weaving scarves… as a means to a better life and freedom from the streets. From those humble beginnings, we work with over 35 women that are a part of the scarf creating process. Your purchase creates jobs. See the rest of our line at livefashionABLE.com.
