What does it even mean?
I think about ecology a lot lately. I grew up in the trees and running bare foot. It would be really painful for me if I lost it one day. I am 27 now but sometimes I still climb a tree. Especially in spring. šø I really have a tradicion to sketch dresses while sitting in blossoming Apple tree š
BUT.
This isnt about that.
Quality is really important for SVALBON. This is why I use silk, cotton, viscose.. But vegans cross my way as well. I tottaly get it when they get mad when I say I use silk but -
As I told many times before-I believe there is nothing only Black or only white. It's always Grey. And when you say you wear 100% vegan fabric it shows that you don't know how textile industry works. Everything EVERYTHING you do puts a print in the nature. š± Even if that have 'eco', 'vegan' before that.
But there are many things we can Do to leave smaller prints in the nature.
What SVALBON Will Do:
š± We Will plant a tree for every dress you buy from SVALBON,
š± We Will use mixed (50% silk, 50% poliester) silk fabric instead of using 100% silk,
š± We Will continue to make dresses only in one copy,
š± We Will continue to use public transport while shopping for materials,
š± We Will use More poliester fabrics,
š± We Will try to use less paper,
š± We Will continue using eco friendly packing,
š± We Will continue be economical with fabrics,
š± Etc.
What you will Do to show some love? š
With love,
Yours Volihe
SVALBON
