About Us
We are SAIS, a fashion brand based in Germany and Turkey for international retail and wholesale with a strong social commitment. We seek to introduce sustainability in modest fashion by providing modest streetwear for women and outfits for children that we ethically produce in Turkey.
Through our clothes, we want to bring your inner beauty to the outside and make you shine with modesty. That’s why we design each model with great attention to detail and select fabrics of high quality, so that you feel confident and comfortable all day. Our signature style are perfectly round oversize cuts and matching outfits for children.
Through our production, we affirm our social commitment. All clothes are produced by Syrian refugees in Turkey, a way through which we provide them with a much needed income in an economically and politically volatile environment. We also collect the leftover fabrics and create unique accessories and other products, achieving zero waste in our production.
Meet the SAIS Team
We are Sana and Silja, co-founders and co-directors of SAIS. We met in 2019 through our previous work and quickly became close friends. For a long time, we dreamed about creating a fashion brand that aligns with our values of respect for people and the environment and started to plan for it. In January 2023, we were ready to launch SAIS Fashion! “SAIS’’ is a combination of our first names and resembles the word “size” in English.
