Avocado Dye Is, Naturally, Millennial Pink

To make natural dye from avocados, all you need are the pits. Those golden-brown seeds, so slippery when first removed, contain a milky, tannin-rich liquid that blooms into a startling red ink when simmered in water.

First, wash the pits and dry them. Then, boil them in a pot filled with enough water to cover the fabric (about five pits per half-pound of fabric). As the seeds dance around the liquid, slowly knocking into each other, their shells will peel off and crack open, turning the water a bright ruby red. Let it steep overnight.

The next day, add damp fabric until the color looks right. (Any pre-washed fabrics should be soaked in warm water the previous night so the color takes.) Don’t strive for perfection: Each attempt will be different, imperfect, otherworldly and pink.

This deceptively simple process is an art form in the hands of María Elena Pombo. A clothing designer from Venezuela, Ms. Pombo, 30, is part of a group of millennial makers who work with plant-based dyes, which tend to be more sustainable and make use of vegetable scraps that might otherwise be abandoned. From her studio, on an industrial stretch of Ingraham Street in Brooklyn’s East Williamsburg neighborhood, Ms. Pombo creates exquisite made-to-order clothing dyed with all kinds of organic refuse, including walnut shells, annatto seeds and onion skins. But avocado pits are her main medium.

Her company, Fragmentario, is equal parts fashion experiment and educational initiative. In addition to selling clothing, Ms. Pombo offers workshops on how to extract beguiling colors from botanical materials.

The results are uneven by nature. Variations in water minerality and pH, not to mention the inevitable addition of pollutants, affect the shades of plant-based dyes. Hard water, which is full of minerals like calcium and magnesium, can make colors more vibrant, while softer water produces more muted tones. Plant-based fibers like cotton or linen will typically mellow the dye, while animal-derived fibers like wool or silk yield richer hues.

But Ms. Pombo approaches her pigments with a methodical sensibility that reflects her earlier training in engineering. There are beakers, burners and tongs, and jars filled with water sourced from all over the world in her studio, along with meticulous spreadsheets that trace dye experiments and tests. “I’m doing this hand process but it’s very controlled,” she said.

Avocados, Before Millennials

We can thank giant prehistoric sloths for the dispersal of avocados. The Lestodons, as the sloths are known, could grow to be 15 feet long, and they spent their days roaming around South America during the Cenozoic era, swallowing avocados whole and spreading fruit trees in their wake. Though humans began cultivating the fruit as early as 5,000 years ago, one of the earliest published descriptions of the avocado is from 1519: The “edible fruit,” wrote the geographer and conquistador Martin Fernandez de Enciso in a document called Suma de geographia, is “like butter” and “of marvelous flavor, so good and pleasing to the palate that it is a marvelous thing.”

The seeds understandably play second fiddle to this “marvelous” fruit — now so in-demand that the United States imported nearly 2 billion pounds of Hass avocados from Mexico in 2018 alone. But there is evidence the humble pit has long been used for dye or ink. In a paper published in 1964, a Spanish art historian, Santiago Sebastian, wrote that many surviving documents from the Spanish conquest of Central and South America were reportedly written using ink derived from the seeds. And its application to textiles goes back generations, though it is often not preserved in the written record.

“Avocado pink is a bit of a mystery,” said Jennifer Gómez Menjívar, an associate professor of Spanish and Latin American studies at the University of Minnesota, Duluth. “What we know about it has been preserved through oral histories.” For example, the Kuna people who have lived in northeastern Panama and the neighboring San Blas Islands since pre-Hispanic times, mention the use of avocado to dye fabrics in their creation story. But traces of alpaca and llama wool dyed with avocado seeds have been unearthed in archaeological sites as well, notably in the Andean highlands where the Aymara and Quechua people have resided.

Unlike dyes made of onion skins or flowers — where the end product often closely resembles the color of the material — the dye of avocado seeds is “very magical,” Ms. Pombo said. “I would never have imagined that it was going to be pink.”

There are many types of avocados, and thus, many possible shades of avocado pink; the species, part of the laurel family, is generally divided into three botanical races — Mexican, Guatemalan and West Indian — but cross-pollination permits the development of unlimited varieties.

The variety that grew in Ms. Pombo’s yard in her family home in Caracas, called Fuerte, is green-skinned, pear-shaped and double the size of the Hass variety commonly found in the U.S. The seed announces itself when ripe, rattling in the groove inside the fruit like a maraca. Those avocados, Ms. Pombo said, “remind me of home.”

But for her first avocado-dyed clothing collection she used Hass avocado seeds, sourcing them from four different delis in Bushwick. Because storage space at the delis was limited, this meant shuttling to each location twice a week, to pick up around 20 pits each time. It also meant hours spent catching up with the owners and employees when Ms. Pombo dropped in for a pickup.

The outcome was a line of uniform garments, available in linen, silk or a sheer silk-organza-and-cotton blend, that were hand-dyed — down to the button — in a dusty pink shade that calls to mind a bone-dry rose. The garments, which were sold through Instagram, didn’t come cheap: Prices ranged from $300 for a linen shirt to $1,580 for a silk shantung jacket. But Ms. Pombo said that the carefully fabricated pieces are meant to be heirloom items — unique and inheritable. “The idea is to slow down and have a more thoughtful relationship with what we’re consuming,” she said.

One Man’s Trash

Last summer at one of Ms. Pombo’s onion-dyeing workshop, held at McLeod’s Community Garden in Brownsville, Brooklyn, (and offered free-of-charge through a grant from the New York Restoration Project) nearly 50 participants gathered around bins full of waterlogged onion skins, waiting for their turn to dunk scarves and bandannas. Bits of detritus mingled with the fabric as it soaked, imbuing the charmeuse and chiffon with a rusty red hue.

While participants waited patiently for the alchemy to take effect, Ms. Pombo spoke about the beauty that could be wrung from food waste.

“We ask a lot of questions about where our food comes from, but we do not think the same about textiles,” Ms. Pombo said. “By using food waste, you give them a second life, creating beauty of something that would be considered garbage.” (Ms. Pombo now sources her seeds from Arepera Guacuco, a Venezuelan restaurant in Brooklyn. Every week the restaurant fills up a gallon-size Mason jar with about a 100 pits for her use; she grinds most of them with a Vitamix for easier storage.)

Her maternal grandmother, Ligia de Reyes, was sitting in a white plastic patio chair nearby, beaming with pride. Ms. Reyes, who is 80, was visiting Brooklyn from Cabimas, Venezuela, for the first time. Her family left Venezuela slowly, but is now mostly displaced from the country, which is mired in severe economic collapse and devastation.

“I didn’t know how to have this kind of fragmented family structure,” Ms. Pombo said. Her parents are in Canada and her brother lives in London. But both her grandmothers remain in Venezuela. “Nostalgia is such a part of my identity now because it’s not like I can just go back home,” she said. “What remains is a shell of what it was once.”

In 2018, Ms. Pombo became eligible to apply for a green card, which meant that she couldn’t leave the U.S. at all. It was a hard change; the avocado seed workshops had taken her to Italy, Spain and Germany, where she taught workshops; each city produced a unique shade of “avocado pink” from the different water properties and dye-making conditions. (The water in Barcelona and Madrid resulted in more reddish colors, but it was Paris’ hard water that yielded the most extreme pink.)

Realizing she wouldn’t be able to travel for a while, Ms. Pombo began asking friends to send her water from their journeys. Strangers and fans on social media followed suit. Bottles began arriving from Chicago, New Delhi and interesting sources, like the Dead Sea. “Getting those waters from people, that was really beautiful,” Ms. Pombo recalled, visibly moved. Being stuck in New York helped her find a new way to connect with the world. A second clothing line started to take shape. “Everyone has been a part of the collection,” she said. “It inspired a practice for what the color could be like, a sense of playfulness.”

The new pieces, all silk and made-to-order, range from $300 for a scarf to $2,200 for a hand-pleated silk organza dress. The silhouettes are similar to her last collection, but this time the diaphanous textiles are ruched and steamed before dyeing, and the shades vacillate between tones of blush, rust and rose. The results look wild, unwieldy and unpredictable, reflecting the variability of different water samples from around the world.

One of her best friends from Venezuela grounded in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, because her passport had expired and Venezuela has not issued her a new one, was for a long time unable to visit New York. She mailed Ms. Pombo the water she collected from Mexico anyway. “It’s nice,” Ms. Pombo said. “Because we did this together, but away.”

Looking Back at 10 Years of Sentaler Milestones, Including the “Meghan Coat”

It was a piece of advice from Karl Lagerfeld that got Bojana Sentaler into the fashion business. A graduate of the Schulich School of Business with a degree in marketing and finance, the Belgrade-born Canadian’s passion had always been design but she wasn’t quite confident enough to pursue it as a career.

“In 2008 I lived in Dubai for a year, and I worked in media,” she says, as we sip tea during London Fashion Week, where she’s showcasing her fall/winter 2019 collection for media. “One of the most amazing people that I interviewed was Karl Lagerfeld. At the time he was designing villas in Dubai and I remember chatting with him off the record after the interview, letting him know I love fashion and would love to be a fashion designer, but I don’t have a design background. And basically he really bluntly told me that you either have it or you don’t, and if you have it go for it.”

Holding on to that “little source of inspiration,” a germ of an idea was born when Sentaler visited Peru the following year.

“I spent half a year living in Lima and that’s where I discovered the alpaca fabric,” she recalls. “Peruvians are very proud of this material. I began researching it, and found out that it has microscopic air pockets that act as thermal insulators. So that’s why alpaca is very warm, but also very lightweight. And that was it, a light kind of [went on] and I ended up designing my first collection of seven coats while I was living in Lima.”

In the 10 years since, her alpaca wool coats have been seen on everyone from Sophie Gregoire Trudeau to Gigi Hadid to the Duchesses of Sussex and Cambridge. Meghan Markle, in particular, has become a de facto brand ambassador of sorts, having first discovered the brand while living in Toronto during her Suits run. She owns multiple Sentaler coats, bringing them out for significant official appearances, including her first Christmas outing with the royal family.

Dressed in shades of brown from head to toe, Markle topped off her subdued ensemble with a camel coat knotted at the waist. She wore a version of the same coat, in striking scarlet red this time, for her first public appearance of 2019. “She actually also owns the same coat in green,” says Sentaler. “She appeared in the green coat while she was living in Toronto. So I brought it back for the 10th anniversary collection.”

Perhaps it’s unsurprising that Markle’s style hasn’t changed significantly even as she settles into her high-profile new role in the global spotlight; her public appearances over the last year or so have seen her patronize many of the same brands she wore before marrying Prince Harry, with a focus on brands with a sustainable or ethical focus.

“She was very lovely and kind, and just very down-to-earth, which we can still see today,” Sentaler recalls of her first meeting with Markle, many years ago. While they know Markle owns multiple coats from their brand, it’s as much of a surprise to them when she dons one for a public appearance, as it is for everyone else.

“Usually, I find out through Twitter,” she laughs. “Somebody posts it and because of the identifiable details, the media already knows that it’s Sentaler, they’ll spot it right on. I feel so happy that even before we send out a press release, people know it’s a Sentaler. To any designer that’s really rewarding.”

Creating a brand with signature elements that are easily identifiable was a part of Sentaler’s vision from the start, whether it’s the ribbed detail on the sleeves or cuffs, the shawl collars, the knotted bow, or the square pockets. The buttons on all the coats are engraved corozo, an anti-scratchable, anti-breakable natural substance. Another element of the Sentaler ethos since its inception is the strict use of cruelty-free fur. The alpaca fabric for their coats is sourced from 3,000 to 5,000 metres above sea level in Peru where the alpaca animals are protected by the Peruvian government. The fur is obtained from shearing the animal every two to three years, and eventually when the animal dies, or if it dies prematurely from the extreme changes in temperature, the farmers can still profit from the pelt.

“A lot of designers are opting out of using fur now, so I’m really happy that from day one, from the day I launched Sentaler ten years ago, I have always used animal-friendly and cruelty-free fur,” says the designer. “I was never a person that wore fur; I love animals. But once I found out how alpaca fur is obtained, it’s something that I became very passionate about. It’s the most ethical, the way it’s sourced. The animals are not harmed at all.”

A focus on sourcing cruelty-free fur (or choosing to go fur-free entirely) is a definite recent shift in the fashion industry, as is customers’ demand for transparency.

“Customers are very sophisticated,” Sentaler says of the way consumers have changed in recent years. “They want to know where their product is made, how the material is sourced, whether it’s sustainable, and cruelty free. They are very sophisticated and they want to know, ‘why am I purchasing this product and if I do, is it making a difference for someone?’”

A few years ago, Sentaler started a partnership with Sick Kids, a world-renowned Toronto hospital that provides care not just to Canadian children, but to kids all over the world. “I knew of the hospital, but until I became a mother I didn’t really know the extent to which they offered care. I know they have a goal to build a new hospital with new equipment. So I chose to build a partnership with them: proceeds from all sales of Sentaler accessories—the ribbed hats, gloves and scarves—go towards the foundation.” For the past two Christmases, she has also donated Sentaler hats to the hospital because their hypoallergenic nature makes them safe for kids with allergies to wool or cashmere.

For her 10th anniversary collection, Sentaler dove back into her archives, pulling out signature pieces that she wanted to reintroduce for 2019, like the Oversized Hooded Wrap Coat, the Long Wide Collar Wrap Coat (known as the “Meghan Coat”) and the Wrap Coat with Ribbed Sleeves (dubbed the “Kate Coat”). She also brought back hues like Mulberry and Army Green from previous seasons. Designing the collection gave her the opportunity to reflect, and look at her earliest efforts with fresh eyes. What was that like, the nostalgic process of going back to the start?

“Oh my god, it was so much fun,” she smiles. “I have a design studio at home, and I have pictures and inspiration on all four walls from the last 10 years. Everything is so close to my heart, and everything has a story. I remember the feeling I had when I designed a piece a few years ago, and the feeling I had when I designed the very first collection. It was really nice to discover that I still love those pieces.”

If you’ve ever been lucky enough to have something knitted for you. You’ll know how wonderful it is. Over the years I’ve had a few hand knits and I appreciate the time and craftmanship that goes into them. This weeks creative corner interviewee is certainly a highly skilled craftswoman. So please read about Scottish Knitwear and don’t forget to enter the giveaway!

Introduce Yourself

Hello, I’m Sandra Bean and describe my self as a lover of wool! I’m lucky enough to live in the beautiful Scottish Borders which has a long history rearing sheep, spinning their wool and using that wool to produce everything from sweaters and shawls to tartan!

I actually trained as a Registered General Nurse and worked away happily until in 2014, I had my Epiphany moment that changed my life one cold, Winter’s morning at 5.30 am when I was sitting freezing in my car on my way to work…….I AM GOING TO WORK FROM HOME!!

Tell Us About Your Business

I had always knitted for as long as I can remember. I started off knitting scarves for my dolls – these garments got wider and wider as they grew longer and longer! My business is hand knitting very high quality garments for Adults and children of all ages. The sweaters and cardigans for adults are worked in Pure Scottish Aran Wool, Pure Wool, Shetland Wool, Alpaca and occasionally, Cashmere. For the little people, I use yarn that has been mixed with Acrylic for easy care. I knit Hats, Sweaters, Cardigans, Shawls, Wraps, Neck warmers, Mitts, Cowls and knit Custom Orders at the request of clients – many of whom send me a commercial knitting pattern to be knitted in their size and colour choice.

What Made You Start Your Own Business?

I started knitting for family and friends, but there were just so many hand knits my family and friends could cope with! As I said before, I was a hard working nurse who used to come home after a long day at work and sometimes felt I was on a treadmill of work and sleep! I had always knitted so I decided to see how selling to others would go. I very timidly crept into a small shop in my local village that sold everything from newspapers to toys and Christmas trees.

Even more timidly I approached the shop owner and asked if they would take a few hand knitted items – we struck a deal that 10% of anything I sold would go into the charity box sitting on the counter….deal done! I sold every single item within two weeks and the shop keeper asked if I had anymore. The feeling from selling something I had done was quite a buzz!! This made me want to go on and do more and to a wider clientele. It was a young relative who showed me Etsy – the die was cast!! – I had found my business.

Did You Have Any Formal Training?

It was actually my older sister who taught me my craft. She had been knitting a cardigan for herself when 6 year old me insisted she taught me to knit and taught me right now!! A ball of old wool and two large knitting were produced for my lesson. Many tears and tantrums later, I had knitted a squarish “thing!” but the seed had been planted of my future business.

Explain Your Creative Process

For the sweater patterns I design myself – the whole process starts off with a sheet of A4 paper, a pencil and a lot of rubbing out!! I draw a design, usually cable twists. I then work out what type of stitches I plan to put in between the cables, then the type of stitches I plan to put down the sides of the cable design. The next stage is to use odd wool and knit just this pattern – usually I knit it for 30 cms or just a little over. Once this has been done, I then decide what size the “prototype” sweater will be knitted for.

I knit squares in the pattern with varying sizes of needles so I can get the right tension – how many stitches I need to cast on to get a certain size eg., 20 stitches and 19 stitches and 24 rows for 4″ (10 cms) in Pure Aran Wool – this means I have to work out the center design then the amount of stitches at both sides of the design to get a sweater measuring say, 36″ (91 cms) Then again, I have to work out the same tension for the sleeves.

Describe Your Typical Day

Although I work from home I try to plan my day as any other worker would. Usually first thing is to check my computer for any orders or sales that have come in overnight from outwith the UK. This is done with a cup of coffee at my side After this it is my fresh air time – walk the dog along the riverbank then back to work! I have a little room in the house which is mine to get peace and quiet to either design in or to knit in. I also in summer sit out in the garden and knit, but in winter – I draw my chair up to the fireside and work there – better than a long drive to work!!

My afternoon is much the same but I also knit in the evenings watching my favourite TV programmes. I actually don’t look upon my business as work – just something i enjoy and make a wee bit of profit with at the same time!

What’s Your Biggest Seller?

Must say the my biggest is Men’s Aran Wool Sweaters – I get orders from China, Japan but mostly from the USA. I use wool spun and dyes here in Scotland and the quality of the yarn is second to none

What are The High And Low Points of Running Your Own Business?

My high point was to be invited to knit for the major TV series “Outlander!” and to knit Special Orders for a well known clothing store in Oxford Street London! Low points? Not too sure about these but perhaps I could say that sometimes I don’t spend enough time with my family. As I have to spend so much time on my business – I wear all the hats from worker on the shop floor to Advertising Manager and being General Dogsbody!!

What Would Be Your Top Tips For Running Your Own Creative Business?

Possibly, try, try and try again! Don’t expect immediate success. Try to divide your day up into work time and down time. Find some good friends on FB who are also crafters. Be honest with each other – you can bounce ideas off of them and get and give constructive criticism

My Aspirations?

Continue to work for TV. The buzz of seeing a famous actor wearing something you have knitted just can’t be explained!! I also want to expand my business. More designs, more items in my two shops but mostly, just to continue to enjoy what I’m doing
