"Before starting RE ONA, one of our biggest personal pain points was having to replace our basic staple pieces too frequently. We looked at what was missing from our daily wardrobe and wanted to create quality basics that could last wear after wear." Christina – cofounder
BEHIND THE FABRIC
TENCEL™ Modal
When we launched RE ONA, one of our biggest personal pain points was having to replace our basic staple pieces too frequently.
Our Buttersculpt Signature Collection is made from TENCEL™ Modal, providing long-lasting quality, softness, and durability.
At RE ONA, we are dedicated to offering the best quality to ensure that your clothes last wear after wear.
Our Buttersculpt collection are hand-made using a special double layered technique. This means we sew two layers of heavy-mid weight fabric together, resulting in a supportive, compression-like and seamless finish.
