CO—100 - 2025|Micro-Business Leaders
TRANSCEND
Transcend is a heritage fashion brand creating timeless clothing and accessories through a circular, people-centered approach. Using natural fabrics, upcycled materials, and artisan craftsmanship, each piece — from dresses and jackets to functional accessories — is designed for longevity, comfort, and everyday use. This year, Transcend plans to launch its first “Made in Washington” collection, produced entirely through a hyper-local supply chain that sources deadstock textiles and employs refugee and immigrant seamstresses in Washington state. By combining traditional techniques with AI-powered efficiencies, the brand reduces waste, shortens production timelines, and creates meaningful economic opportunities — all without compromising on quality or ethics.
