Fabric Requirements:
The Avenir Jumpsuit is designed for woven fabrics. You will get a different look depending on the fabric you select. A drapey rayon or silk will give a more elegant dressy look, while a more sturdy fabric like a linen will give you a gorgeous everyday style. We encourage you to be creative and daring with fabric! It would look amazing in a double gauze cotton, a rayon challis, or lightweight canvas - you can’t really go wrong.

The Friday Pattern Company generously dontates 5% of the sales of The Avenir Jumpsuit to Against Malaria Foundation
What They Do + Why We Love Them:
The Against Malaria Foundation distribute long-lasting insecticidal nets to populations at high risk for malaria, an infectious disease that kills half a million people every year (and sickens 400 million more). Each net costs approximately $5, lasts for three to four years, and protects two people on average. GiveWell, a nonprofit that evaluates charitable giving, has estimated that for every $3,000 spent on these nets, one life is saved. What’s more, every $1m spent fighting malaria efficiently improves the GDP of Africa by $12m. In short, AMF offers one of the single most powerful, cost-effective ways of reducing human death and suffering.
