When Dominic Nowell-Barnes founded The Giving Movement in 2020, he wasn’t just launching another athleisure brand—he was starting a revolution. Rooted in the idea that style and substance can go hand in hand, the label has redefined what it means to shop with intention. From luxe fabrics and on-trend designs to a mission of giving back, The Giving Movement is proving that fashion with a purpose isn’t just a buzzword—it’s the future.

Inspired by his time in Dubai, Dominic built The Giving Movement on a foundation of multiculturalism, sustainability, and philanthropy. The city’s perfect blend of luxury and generosity influenced his vision to create a brand that caters to both fashion lovers and change-makers. “I wanted to create something that was both fashion-forward and socially responsible, driven by the idea that every purchase could contribute to a larger, meaningful cause,” Dominic shares.

Today, the brand donates $4 from every purchase to child welfare and humanitarian aid initiatives. Since its launch, The Giving Movement has raised over $11 million, transforming the simple act of buying clothes into a force for global change.

It’s not just about giving back—it’s about doing better. The Giving Movement has sustainability woven into every step of its process. Think eco-friendly fabrics like recycled polyester and nylon, sustainable packaging, and ethical manufacturing practices that prioritise fair labour. Transparency is key: the brand’s commitment to ethical factories ensures that every piece is made responsibly, giving customers peace of mind that their wardrobe choices align with their values.

In the crowded world of athleisure, The Giving Movement holds its own by combining fashion-forward designs with a purpose-driven mission. The pieces? Refined, versatile, and designed for everything from yoga sessions to coffee runs. The purpose? To give every purchase a greater meaning, appealing to consumers who care about looking good and doing good.

Now, The Giving Movement is heading Down Under—and the timing couldn’t be better. With Australia’s growing love for sustainable fashion and active lifestyles, Dominic sees the brand as a natural fit. “Australia is a market that is increasingly attuned to sustainability, ethical fashion, and social responsibility—values that are core to our mission”, he explains.

The Giving Movement is set to connect with local communities by partnering with Australian charities and supporting causes like mental health, child welfare, and environmental conservation. It’s all about making a direct and meaningful impact while offering clothes that look and feel incredible.

For Dominic, fashion is more than just fabric and trends—it’s a platform for change. The Giving Movement believes in apparel that goes beyond the surface, where every thread tells a story of positive impact. “Every garment is a reflection of values that resonate with customers—environmental consciousness, social responsibility, and the desire to contribute to something greater than oneself.”

As The Giving Movement grows, Dominic hopes to inspire a larger shift in the industry, where brands compete not just on aesthetics, but on their ability to make a difference. By transforming the act of buying clothes into a conscious decision to align with a cause, Dominic hopes to be a catalyst for positive change, seamlessly blending athleisure with purpose.

Welcome to a movement that makes a difference—welcome to The Giving Movement.
