This collection is an experiment with eco friendly fashion. It creates a fresh and innovative look for sustainability to challenge the austere stereotypes associated with it. The collection was developed using carefully selected materials: up-cycled fabrics, recycled fibres, organic fibres and 3D printed biodegradable plastics only.”
