Since October 2021, DISSH has been a proud partner of Thread Together, an Australian non-profit organisation, driving social and environmental change that matters.

To date, DISSH has donated over $250,000 of brand new DISSH clothing and financial support, that has directly supported vulnerable communities across Australia and rescued clothes from potential landfill. Thread Together redistributes new clothing to communities in need across the country, delivering a tailored service to each person, whilst cementing itself as a sustainable solution for the textile waste problem in Australia. Some of the communities they support include: the homeless, youth at risk, Indigenous communities, survivors of domestic violence, refugees, long term unemployed, and those impacted by natural disasters.

We are proud to have contributed financially towards their modular wardrobe initiative, with the target of 100 modular wardrobes to be built across women's and children's shelters across the country. Our DISSH team will be supporting Thread Together in building these wardrobes across Queensland.

Work alongside us in raising funds to support Thread Together in their mission of driving important social and environmental change. When you shop with DISSH, add a donation on checkout and shop with purpose.

From Yves Saint Laurent to Giorgio Armani, Christian Dior, and Alexander McQueen, queer designers have been pushing societies normative boundaries for decades. Paving the way for the next generation of inspirers like LOEWE and Jacquemus, who’ve continued to challenge and encourage others to do the same, celebrating clothing as a tool of self-expression – gender roles be damned. 

The brave, creative, and societal-defying efforts of these LGBTQIA+ icons are the reason our industry celebrates diversity, liberation, and representation. But we still have a way to go.  

As a brand and business that celebrates diversity in all facets, we put our values into action this Pride Month, investing in the future of fashion with the return of our Pride Grant. An Australian-wide initiative, this year we pledged $15,000 to the tuition of one LGBTQIA+ Creative Industries’ student: Nathalie Coronado Quispe. 

A QUT Bachelor of Fashion Design student, Nathalie’s story and talent was one we felt compelled to support. To ensure the industry we know, love, and work in continues to grow at the hands of those who bring new perspectives, new ideas, and new inspiration, we’re excited to announce Nathalie as our 2024 Pride Grant recipient.
