a.d.o (anjelika dreams organic) is a clothing line designed for the active woman: Comfortable and breathable!

Our clothing is made in the age-old, Indian tradition of Ayur-Vastra, which literally translates to “life or health clothing". Each strand of yarn is infused with hand-picked natural ingredients such as pomegranate seeds, turmeric, lemon, indigoFera, sandalwood, basil, Eucalyptus etc., which in Vedic India was used to cure the wearer of various ailments depending upon blends of embedded herbs.

Our Company policies lies in making clothes that are free of synthetic chemicals, toxic irritants, and 100% organic and sustainable. In addition while colored dyes are still a problem to organic clothing, a.d.o stands out because we use all natural vegetable dye, leaving the environment clean, happy and safe for our future generations.

Respecting our environment also means respecting the welfare of the tailors and seamstresses who bring their craft to you. All a.d.o clothing is made in a factory in India and U.S.A, that takes a holistic approach to their employees and economic sustainability. In addition to healthy working conditions, food and housing are standard. In other
words, they are part of an extended family.

The 'a.d.o' woman is one with her community, active, and wants the very best for her family, her surroundings, the body and the soul. We hope you enjoy wearing our clothes as much as we have enjoyed creating them.
