It's so great to see a fashion designer dealing with the sustainability issue without the 'hippie' aesthetic!
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of Lyocell before. Could you tell me more about it?
Lyocell is considered to be one of the most environmentally sustainable fabrics currently available. This man-made fibre is made from the cellulose from wood pulp harvested from farm trees. When the plantation wood is grown in countries where the rainfall is high and the most appropriate growing conditions are selected the plants are more resistant and faster growing. Good planting reduces the need for chemicals and irrigation and therefore makes this part of the process more sustainable. The final step to keep this process in check is ensuring that the wood pulp is shipped to the manufacturer.
ReplyDeleteIn the manufacturing process of Lyocell minimal energy and water are used and in most cases non-toxic solvents (which can be re-used).
