Each year hundreds of children in North America are diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes - UNLIKE Type 2, Type 1 Diabetes is autoimmune disorder which occurs mostly in young children or teens and cannot be prevented or cured with a healthy lifestyle or diet.
Our baby boy was only 9 months old when he developed type 1 Diabetes. What we thought was a bad case of flu turned out to be an onset of diabetic coma. Now he requires 4-6 insulin injections every day to survive and has to have his blood tested for glucose levels every 3-4 hours around the clock for the rest of his life. Fortunately, some of the brightest minds of our time like Dr. Faustman of The Faustman Lab at Massachusetts General Hospital are working on a cure right now and hopefully will get one in Sammy's lifetime. Please get involved, educate yourself and spread the word to others:

Our story...

When buying from an artist/maker, you are buying more than just an object/painting. You are buying hundreds of hours of failures and experimentation. You are buying days, weeks & months of frustration and moments of PURE JOY. YOU AREN'T JUST BUYING A THING, you are buying a piece of heart, part of soul, a moment of someone's life. Most importantly, you are buying the artist more time to do something they are passionate about.
Using as many organic and responsibly produced fabrics as possible, we strive to keep our collections small and beautifully unique, without compromising the luxury and the outstanding quality of Econica's garments. Each and every piece of our organic apparel, lingerie or cashmere line is carefully designed and meticulously created by hand right here in Ontario, Canada. By offering you custom tailored, and many times one of a kind pieces, we want women to look beautiful when they wear our clothing, while feeling good about the way it was made.

Returns and exchange details
Because of the handmade nature of Econica's items we have limited return policy. Returns are accepted on Ready-To-Ship items only - see details in each item's description. Our shipping/restocking fee will apply. For hygienic reasons we do not accept returns/alterations requests on panties or sets with panties. We do not accept returns or exchanges on made-to-order / custom items. However, if you are not happy with your order - we offer one complimentary alteration.

COLORS & FABRICS: our fabrics come in different weight/density depending on color and season. Please contact us BEFORE placing your order with your color choice if you would like to know which weight fabric we will be using for your order. If you picked a trim color NOT listed or did not pick one at all - we will pick straps and trims colors to coordinate with your garment to the best of our abilities. All our apparel and most of lingerie fabrics are knit jersey (non-woven) materials.

IF YOU ARE NOT SATISFIED WITH YOUR GARMENT: please fill out ALTERATION REQUEST FORM here: https://econica.ca/pages/customer-care
and submit it within 10 days of delivery confirmation. Please allow up to 3 business days to receive an assessment from our team.
We cannot guarantee that you will like your garment, like the length, like the fit, or like the color and are unable to offer refunds or exchanges for these reasons. To ensure a better ( but not guaranteed) fit please include your measurements along with your general size: chest, waist, hip circumference, shoulder width, arm length and height. As well as the complimentary fabric swatches can be requested to confirm the colors. Because of the handmade nature of each garment overall and sleeve length indicated in each listing is approximate. A difference of a few inches is to be expected as al our items are hand-cut and hand-sewn. For hygiene purposes, no alterations can be accepted on panties/knickers/underwear. Lingerie sliders and bows are optional.
Because of the handmade nature of Econica's clothing line, there will be slight variations in each garment, such as trim color, length and lace pattern, but we promise you it will be just as beautiful and well-made as the one in the picture.
We can adjust certain Econica's styles down a size but not up. If you have purchased too small a size you will need to purchase your garment of choice in the next size up.
We hope you will LOVE your new clothes and enjoy wearing it as much as we enjoyed making it for you.
