From Colovos, a sustainable collection you'll really, truly want to wear.
International Woolmark Prize for Womenswear
back in February. Finalists were tasked with producing a collection made entirely from Australian merino wool, but the Colovoses went further and designed a sustainable collection: choosing responsibly farmed and produced wools; sending production scraps to a facility that breaks down the fiber with steam and citrus to be re-spun into new yarn; and using recycled materials for the trim, button, labels, and hangtags.
The husband-and-wife designers had taken sustainable steps in previous seasons—sourcing fabric made from recycled ocean plastic, rejecting leather and fur in favor of faux varieties—but this collection marks the first time they approached the issue so holistically. “We’re not trying to preach,” says Michael. “We’re just trying to show you can make a collection just as high fashion as anything out there in a way that’s zero waste and non-harmful.
offering will ship in a few months with the recycled labels and hangtags they developed for this one. “Ideally for us we’d be zero waste and zero emissions,” Michael begins. “Emissions we couldn’t eliminate we’d offset, give money to plant more trees. We’d be cradle to cradle, take things back, and anything we created from recycled or post consumer waste—stuff that used to just get thrown away—we’d donate all that money to charity. That’s where we’d like to go.
