"DEFINED BY VALUES, NOT LABELS"

Purpose Collective began as a simple idea: what if luxury could mean more? More connection, more heritage, more care for our planet & people. We are growing a space to share the people, brands, and ideas that inspire us to live with intention. A living archive that is part editorial, part community, and all about style that lasts and stories that matter.

WARDROBE ESSENTIALS:
The White Shirt

From Carolyn Bessette’s effortless minimalism to today’s reimagined silhouettes, the white shirt has always been more than a basic — it’s a cultural code. A canvas for individuality. A constant in a world of trends.

Here, our TOP PICKS, made of regenerative, recycled and organic materials - no matter your budget or aesthetic. Wear yours day or night, pared down or glammed up.

Estelle Bailey-Babenzien moves between fashion, culture, and design with rare fluency. As co-founder of Noah, alongside her husband Brendon, she has helped shape a brand that fuses classic tailoring with street sensibility—while never shying from conversations around ethics, equity, and sustainability.

Through her studio Dream Awake Design, Estelle brings that same conviction to space, creating retail environments that feel less like stores and more like cultural statements. Most importabtly, Estelle brings the same depth of perspective as a mother, weaving the values of care, responsibility, and future-building into both her personal life and her creative practice.

“I’m finding myself in a moment. One that is about reframing, traversing, and disrupting… Other times I’m literally moving from one country to another in search of new work and new meaning to old work. And then you might also find me finding ways to slow down, and mind my own damn business. Here are some of my new fave things that come with me on my new journey.” – Jodie Patterson​​

One of Hollywood’s most sought-after stylists, she’s shaped the looks of trailblazers like Tracee Ellis Ross, Justin Bieber, Olivia Wilde and more. But Karla’s impact transcends aesthetics. As the co-founder of Period Company, she has leveraged her influence to normalize conversations around menstruation, championing sustainability, dignity, and access in an industry long overdue for disruption.

SPOTLIGHT

Vintner's Daughter

Vintner’s Daughter is more than just a skincare brand—it is a movement rooted in intentionality, craftsmanship, and an unwavering commitment to quality.  Vintner’s Daughter champions the philosophy of “fewer, better,” advocating for products that work harder so that you don’t have to. Forget about a twelve step routine, these three items are all you need.

Vintners Daughter

URBAN BOHEMIAN 

Effortless and artful - bohemian style captures the timeless spirit of conscious luxury.

THE PROCESS

The Process is where we spotlight the story behind the product — how it's made, who made it, and why that matters. Providing a deeper look at the materials, craftsmanship, and values that shape conscious design. By understanding the journey of an item—from concept to creation—we create a connection to what we choose to own and wear. 

 

First unveiled in her Fall/Winter 2023 Rising Shelter collection—set against striking sculptures of discarded garments—Marine Serre’s upcycled tote bags reflect a bold vision of hope in the face of climate crisis. Each piece begins with the thoughtful curation of vintage cotton totes, selected for their quality and globally inspired patterns. These everyday objects are transformed into couture-level creations, where bold, singular graphics evoke a sense of travel, memory, and multicultural connection.

The Regenerate collection expands this concept into unisex streetwear silhouettes—think oversized bomber jackets, wide-leg trousers, and structured shirts—each integrating tote handles or distinctive patchwork in unexpected ways. Women’s pieces, like the structured bustier, contrast raw materiality with sensual form. Every item is one-of-a-kind, bearing the Marine Serre logo and embodying the brand’s commitment to circular design—reminding us that what we wear can carry stories, cultures, and responsibility.
