OUR MISSION & VISION
EMPOWERMENT
Meet the faces behind our product. The ones who make it all possible. The ones that we empower and that empower us, every day. Most garment makers at Selfie Leslie have been with us for over 5 years, webbing together a tight-knit family of passion and care that take our garments from pattern making right through to reality.
LOWER IMPACT
In 2023, we are on the path of creating and being a part of a lower impact product. Piece by piece, we are welcoming kind brands to our store that use eco-friendly and recycled fabrications. Things that not only look good, but DO GOOD. We encourage you to be a part of our journey by supporting the brands that support our world.
OUR PEOPLE
We pride ourselves on making fashion for every human alike. We employ and work with a diverse team of people from all walks of life. At our global HQ in Australia, you will find a refreshing rainbow of cultures that make our space one of warmth and discovery.
RECYCLED SWIMWEAR
In 2023, we welcomed VDM The Label to the family. Using only recycled fabrications, we pay homage to our earth by representing a label with such a strong stance in the ethical direction. With a commitment to ethical production, environmentally friendly materials, and stylish designs, VDM The Label is leading the way in the swimwear industry and inspiring others to follow suit.
So whether you’re lounging by the pool, soaking up the sun on the beach, or exploring new destinations, we encourage you to choose VDM The Label and join us in our mission to create a better, more responsible world, one bikini at a time.

THE PRINCESS PROJECT X SELFIE LESLIE
In recent times, Selfie Leslie has supported and partnered with the Princess Project to bring unused clothing to those less fortunate and in need. Have a read about this beautiful initiative.
The Princess Project executes its mission through seven core values. In everything we do, we strive to honor these values so that we can continue to provide an exemplary experience for the teens we serve, volunteers that help, and our generous donors.
VALUES
Celebrate healthy body-image
We celebrate bodies of all sizes and avoid using body imagery in our marketing and outreach. Body-oriented graphics and artwork—like torso silhouettes, dress outlines or generic, stock prom photos—inadvertently convey an idealized body size, style and look.
By instead using images of the teens we serve and royalty-related imagery like tiaras and crowns, we celebrate the beauty and diversity of teens everywhere, in every size.
Value our earth’s resources
We value the importance of recycling and of using the earth’s resources wisely. We seek to show our respect for this recycling process by treating each clothing and/or accessory donation as valued and important.
Trust our community
We trust that teens who are in financial need of garments or accessories will attend The Princess Project events, and we will welcome them without question. We in turn will foster the important trust of our donors, who give to The Princess Project with the intent that teens in need will benefit.
Offer meaningful experiences
We strive to offer meaningful volunteer leadership opportunities for women, and seek to provide a venue for volunteers to grow personally and professionally.
We seek to make The Princess Project planning process rewarding, educational, and fun for our volunteers.
Include diverse representation of our community
We strive to include representatives of teens that we serve in our decision-making processes.
Create fun & respectful environment
We strive to create a respectful, fun atmosphere for the teens we serve at the Dress Giveaway events.
Include a diverse group of volunteers
We strive to include the diversity of people represented in our communities and our volunteer corps.
