Exclusive to Rue Madame and Clémence by Rue Madame: Empowering Women Through Artisan Craftsmanship

Hong Kong, 7 May 2025 — The Jacksons, a beloved British artisan bag brand, has been one of the bestsellers at Rue Madame and Clémence by Rue Madame, thanks to its eye-catching designs, exquisite craftsmanship, and commitment to sustainability. Frequently spotted in celebrity wardrobes and on the big screen, The Jacksons bags return for the Spring/Summer 2025 Collection with the exclusive PEACE series alongside an array of dopamine designs, as a celebration of positivity. Featuring a kaleidoscope of vibrant colors and joyful motifs, the collection injects optimism into everyday life, inspiring warmth and hope. These artisanal pieces are set to be this summer’s must-have fashion statement, uniting creativity and intrigue in every weave.

 The Jacksons handwoven jute bags are exclusively available in Hong Kong at Rue Madame and Clémence by Rue Madame.

The partnership between The Jacksons and Rue Madame has had a profound impact, directly transforming the lives of more than 700 women and families in Southwest Bangladesh. For over 20 years, The Jacksons has been dedicated to empowering 1,400 jute bag weavers, providing them with independence and agency. This jute bag production has not only been a symbol of sustainable fashion, but also changed the fate of countless families. It has helped alleviate food insecurity and enabled children, especially girls, to stay in school longer—many are now pursuing higher education and aspiring to administrative careers, creating significant shifts in their families' futures. Additionally, The Jacksons supports the Shamproty School for the deaf and non-verbal children by providing an ultrasound machine to improve healthcare access in remote villages. This year, The Jacksons aims to raise public awareness about the impacts of climate change, as Bangladesh faces increasingly extreme weather conditions. Looking ahead, The Jacksons believes these efforts will lead to substantial improvements in living conditions, education, and job opportunities, bringing hope to local communities.
