“Pull a thread here, and you will find it attached to the whole world.” – Nadeem Aslam. I first came across this quote during my Fashion Innovation course, which positioned fashion as a global system. Today, it hit home again during an industrial visit to Marsil Group, where I witnessed this connection in action—from a single thread to the global market. While embroidery design isn’t my usual focus, this visit offered insights into: • The complexities of scaling a high-caliber organization • Impeccable embroidery standards and techniques • Importance of resource management and teamwork • The challenges of material sustainability One pressing question remained: Where are the eco-friendly alternatives, and why haven’t they reached the ubiquity of plastics? The journey towards sustainable fashion lies in refining processes and scaling responsible materials. It’s time for the industry to embrace this change. #Sustainability #FashionInnovation #SustainableFashion #CircularFashion #EcoFriendly #FashionDesign #FutureOfFashion #GreenFashion #TextileIndustry #SustainableMaterials #InnovateForChange #AdaptForGood #ShiftTowardsSustainability

Discovered Colorifix through the #GoingGreenMedia Instagram reel by Ben Brown and Ciara Doyle. Fascinated by their YouTube video, I delved into how #Colorifix can transform bacteria into eco-friendly clothing dyes. 😲 🌈 Transforming fashion with a natural splash! Colorifix, a UK-based innovator, has revolutionized the dyeing process by "copying and pasting" colors from Mother Nature. Using DNA from organisms, they cultivate microbes that multiply rapidly, then apply them to fabrics with standard dyeing machines. 👕 The brilliance? No harmful chemicals, significantly less water, sidestepping toxins, and reducing water usage by nearly 80%, potentially saving 2.5 trillion liters annually. 🌊 A game-changer for eco-friendly fashion, addressing environmental concerns caused by traditional dyeing methods. 🌿 YouTube video: https://lnkd.in/dCJrWzGf #SustainableFashion #ColorifixInnovation #EcoFriendlyDyeing

The growing trend of sustainability and innovation within the fashion industry, a groundbreaking approach is emerging, poised to redefine the very fabric of our clothes: ‘biofabrication’. This exciting frontier blends the realms of biology and technology, offering a glimpse into a future where fashion not only embraces but also nurtures our planet. The journey of integrating biofabricated materials into mainstream fashion is filled with challenges, from scaling production to ensuring affordability. Yet, the potential rewards — for our planet, for industry sustainability, and consumer health — are immense. Biofabrication invites us to reimagine the relationship between fashion and the environment, heralding a future where every thread we wear contributes to a healthier, more sustainable planet. #biofabrication #sustainability #fashion #sustainablefashion #technology

With sustainable fabrics, we not only adorn ourselves with style but also with purpose – a purpose that transcends trends and seasons, rooted deeply in our commitment to preserving the planet for generations to come. Let us walk this path together, inspired by the possibility of a more sustainable future, where fashion becomes a force for positive change. As we adorn ourselves in garments crafted from sustainable fabrics, let us also adorn our hearts with hope and determination, knowing that every small choice we make has the power to create a ripple effect of transformation. Together, let us weave a tapestry of sustainability, one garment at a time, and let our collective consciousness be the driving force behind a brighter, greener tomorrow. 🌲✅ #sustainability #fabrics #branding #promo #instalike #postoftheday

PARIS FASHION WEEK: Y25 “Why are clothes still being stitched when we have the potential to explore so many other techniques?” asked Van Beirendonck. “This project is all about innovation, research, and pushing the conventions of fashion. ---------- There is a reason to disagree Van Beirendonck.. Threads are 1/1000th in Garments materials, but still without which you don't have Garments... Stitching doesn't stays with Thread alone, and replacing it with Other Techs is not an advancement ! but an Erosion of "Art".. Behind this Art there is the Global "workforces" Employed !! & Industries producing materials for "stitch works".. Fashion advancements shouldn't be mere "Radical Thinking" to "suppress the progress of survivals" .. Modernity shouldn't punish sustainability in other words, that's how i feel...
