#nonviolencesilk

[martieneraven]

Did you know? ・・・ Wild silks are harvested after the butterflies have left the cocoon. Therefore it's a so called non-violence silk. The cocoons gathered in the wild usually have been damaged by the emerging moth, so the silk thread that makes up the cocoon has been torn into shorter lengths. Therefore there is not one long thread as with domesticated silkworms, which makes the yarns slightly irregular and give it this special and beautiful structure. . #Repost @elsiengringhuis photo @casadekaophotography . #blazer #wildsilk #nonviolencesilk #nature #structure #elsiengringhuis #design #localproduction #madeinthenetherlands #ethicalfashion #fairfashion #forwardfashion #youcanchangethewayitis #buylesschoosewell #makeitlast #europeanlabels #sustainablefuture #sustainableluxury #sustainablefashion #whatyouwearishowyoufeel #rethink (bij Berlin Mitte)
