Fashion and beauty
If you're in search of clothing gifts but against fast fashion, explore the numerous local and ethical clothing brands in Mauritius. Cococerlo, a brand that captures the essence of the sea and sunny days, has boutiques from Bagatelle to Tribeca and Coeur de Ville, spreading across the island. Their extensive collection of unisex casual shirts is a favorite. Kotpiale is another option, blending local craftsmanship with fashion and design, offering not only clothing but also handcrafted objects and accessories reflecting the Mauritian spirit. For T-shirts, sweatshirts, and amusing inscriptions, check out Mauricette, available at l'Aventure du Sucre and online.
In the realm of jewelry, Filao showcases sustainable collections inspired by the sea and plants, made locally with eco-conscious materials. Other local artisans, such as the Entreprendre au F茅minin Oc茅an Indien association, craft jewelry and accessories from banana fiber. Keep an eye out for Freetsy, Katoke, and Madame Chipie on social networks.
For those with environmental concerns, explore L'茅colo, a zero-waste store in Nouvelle Usine, offering water bottles, reusable bags, natural soaps, and cosmetics for a more eco-responsible lifestyle.
