Clothing has frequencies
Clothing, like everything in the universe, carries frequencies that affect your energy. Different materials, colors & production methods influence your mood & your well being.
High vibrational fabrics:
1. Silk: (10,000+ Hz)
Known for its luxurious feel, silk is considered one of the highest vibrational fabrics. It helps keep spiritual & emotional balance, while also being breathable and moisture absorbing.
2. Linen: (5,000 Hz)
Linen is known for its healing & grounding properties. It regulates energy flow and enhance your overall well being making it one of the most beneficial fabrics to wear.
3. Hemp: (5,000 Hz)
Hemp, a strong natural fiber, known for grounding and durability. It vibrates at a frequency similar to linen, enhancing stability & balance.
4. Wool: (5,000 Hz)
Wool is valued for its warmth and grounding energy. It has a protective frequency, which helps to maintain balance, particularly in colder climates.
5. Cotton: (100-500 Hz)
While not as high as silk or linen, cotton is still considered a high vibrational fabric. It promotes comfort and balance. Organic cotton is has an even higher frequency due to its natural cultivation.
6. Cashmere: (5,000 Hz)
Like wool, cashmere is known for warmth and luxury, offering a high vibration associated with comfort & peace.
Low vibrational fabrics:
1. Polyester: (15-70 Hz)
Polyester, being synthetic, is believed to have a very low vibrational frequency, which can block the natural flow of energy through the body. It causes emotional or physical discomfort over time and its production involves harsh chemicals contributing to low vibrational energy.
2. Acrylic: (15-70 Hz)
Another synthetic material that is associated with a low frequency that may lead to feelings of disconnection or imbalance.
3. Nylon: (30-70 Hz)
Often found in activewear, nylon has a low vibrational frequency and feels out of sync with the body’s natural energy flow.
4. Rayon: (30-70 Hz)
Rayon is also considered low vibrational because of the chemicals used in its production. It doesn’t offer the same energetic benefits as natural fibers.
How low vibrational clothing affects energy:
Blocks natural energy Flow: Synthetics like polyester can trap heat, moisture, and energy, blocking the natural flow through your body, which may lead to imbalance or discomfort.
Negative manufacturing practices: The production of low-vibrational fabrics often involves environmental harm and poor working conditions, which may carry negative energy that can affect the wearer.
Disrupts skin earth connection: Natural fibers like linen and cotton are thought to maintain a connection with the Earth’s energy, while synthetics can disrupt this connection, leading to a sense of disconnection.
Holds onto energies: Synthetic fabrics don’t breathe well and can hold onto negative energy from the environment or wearer, making you feel energetically weighed down over time.
Choosing high vibrational, natural fabrics can help improve your mood & energy flow, while low vibration synthetics will lead to you feeling disconnected and imbalanced.

All that glitters isn't always gold...
..sometimes it's just gold lame. Or Lurex. Or Mylar.
OK - so what the heck is lame? (pronounced 'lah-MAY') It was traditionally fabric made from metal fibers wrapped around other fibers, like silk or rayon. It was designed to create a metallic shine to clothing, so clothes were typically gold, silver, or copper colored. Besides style, lame was used in fencing uniforms which allowed the electrified sabers to register a 'hit' against an opponent.
Lurex is a close cousin to lame. In fact, you could claim they're in the same household since Lurex vaporized metal onto other fibers.
Today most manufacturers use Mylar, a polyester film that creates a metallic look, like with the one piece bathing suit I'm wearing. The trouble with Mylar is, after a while, it starts to peel off the backing fabric. Which makes clothing unappealing.
But, on the good side of things, a mylar swimsuit like this one is just fine for passing through airport metal detectors.

Why....why are the sweaters 3/4 sleeve??? Personally I would totally get a black sweater (or white tbh) but I can't vibe with a 3/4 sleeve (for a few reasons, mostly various sensory/attention problems) so i was wondering why that choice was made and whether there's any chance of a full length sleeve being made in addition or instead? But also I'm curious as to exactly what kind of fabric it is? Is it an anti-pill material? (Pilling is one of my fabric enemies)
so first off, this as is about the lace collar sweaters that will be hitting the store later this year. you can watch the full video here, but i’m including screenshots as well for those of y’all who don’t want to watch the video.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
2nd, i get that everyone has personal preferences, but this was unnecessarily rude. you’re not going to like every decision we make, and that’s OK, but if you’re old enough to use a credit card to buy things online, you’re old enough to realize that product decisions you dislike were not made to personally gall you.
there were a few reasons we chose to do 3/4 sleeves, but the primary reason was that 3/4 sleeves work better for a variety of arm lengths. a 3/4 sleeve will look good whether someone’s arm is shorter or longer than average, whereas a full length sleeve can easily be too long or too short for the person wearing it. we also didn’t want to do short sleeves because at the time the only other shirt we had in production was the wrap top, which has short/cap sleeves.
we do have some full long sleeve shirts/sweaters in planning/in production that we have not shown off yet, but currently we do not have plans to make a long sleeve version of this particular sweater because we have no idea what sales will look like. if these sweaters sell well and there’s considerable customer demand, we’ll consider doing long sleeves. if these sweaters sell poorly they will not be returning to the store, period. we are a small business with limited funds and we cannot throw infinite money at the wall.
last, the fabric composition is 62% polyester, 33% viscose, 5% elastane. we tested a lot of fabrics for this sweater, and this was the only one that felt right. its appropriate thickness (not super thin, but not super thick, so that it can easily be layered under warmer garments or worn solo without causing you to overheat), the cute ribbing, and the texture/feeling (which don’t aggravate my textural sensitivities as an autistic person with very sensitive skin) were all just right.
we’ve also done a number of wash tests and did not encounter any issues with pilling. in general, if you take good care of our garments, that is not going to be an issue from our current manufacturer, who have demonstrated time and again that they prioritize quality labor and material that is made to last. the reason shein products fall apart isn’t because they’re made of polyester: it’s because the sewing is rushed and the fabric fibers are low quality and often have a looser knit or weave, which makes them more prone to damage/falling apart on a structural level.
as for pilling specifically, pilling is actually the fabric breaking. looser weaves/knits are more prone to breakage because they are more open and cheap fabrics are often made of looser weaves, which results in more pilling. but even a high quality material can pill under the right (or wrong) circumstances. when fiber is wet, similar to hair, it is more vulnerable to breakage, and washing machines with agitators (the big thing in the middle of some washers) are really really good at breaking your fibers, thus resulting in more pilling.
anyway tldr the sweaters shouldn’t have any pilling issues if you treat them right and full length sleeves are not likely to happen but are not totally impossible.

Hi Miss Sergle!!! I was wondering if you and maya would ever be open to make skirts with different materials? Like natural ones like cotton and linen. I personally avoid polyester when i can so it would be cool to see this option.
maya actually has been asked this question lots of times! she'd obviously like to make more natural fiber stuff if it was more feasible, but this is actually already in her faq.
"When it comes to custom printed skirts—unfortunately, no. I would love to be able to do that, but it is not feasible for our business.
Our skirts are printed using sublimation, which is a technique that requires synthetic material to work. In the case of our synthetic fiber skirts, this works just fine, but in the case of natural fiber cloth, the manufacturer has to use a polyester spray in order to bind the ink to the natural fiber, which sort of defeats the purpose of going natural to begin with.
Additionally, this is extremely expensive and is out of budget both for us as a company, and also for most of our customers.
We are working on a natural fiber option for our skirts, but the skirts will be dyed in a single color and not custom printed the way our synthetic fiber skirts are.
At the end of the day, we prioritize ethical labor and the certification of all our materials/processes as safe and non-hazardous over offering natural fiber." TL;DR: you can't have a natural fiber skirt with our art printed on it the way we do w synthetic. also, though people ask for these skirts, manufacturing them with ethical labor is very expensive, and folks often don't want to / aren't able to sink that kind of money for a skirt! people already ask why the current skirts are "so expensive", so a significantly more expensive version of a cotton skirt-- without custom printing on it-- is sort of a hard sell. P.S. I collaborate by making designs, but I don't make manufacturing decisions LOL I very much do not decide things like what fabrics to use.

Help me find my childhood favorite toy!
When I was about 2, I got this plush fish as a birthday present, and it quickly became my favorite toy. I'm still very attached to it, but I'm trying to possibly find a better condition version, just to have one. I'm assuming the toy was manufactured in the 90s, as I received it around 2003. Here's a picture of mine:
Tumblr media
The information on the front side of the tag reads: "Distributed by Target corporation, Minneapolis MN 55403/ Item Number 73313 (I believe it says this; it may be an 8 instead of a 3)/ Made in China." The back side reads, "All new material/ conforms to toy safety regulations/ inner bagged PE pellets and polyester fiber/machine washable 0026/KCI PA. REG. NO. 253."
I was able to find this fish by Russ Berrie, which looks to be a similar shape, but is yellow, and a larger fish of the same shape in purple (also by Russ Berrie), which I also owned as a child. However, I believe my fish was originally pink, and its tag does not read Russ Berrie, so I'm not sure if it was the same company or not.

Hey I just saw your beeswax post and Kim fascinated. What does thread conditioning mean? (If you don’t mind explaining, I know I could Google it but I enjoy listening to people talk about stuff that they enjoy)
I do like talking about sewing! Though lately I've been using my hands for it so much that they're sore for typing sometimes. I need to strengthen my arms so the ligaments stop bitching. >.>
There's an exploration in the last reblog here. Basically: Conditioners are substances you put onto thread to make it stronger and more manageable.
Sometimes that's done in the manufacturing process, like for the creation of hand-quilting thread. It's already stiffer and smoother than usual cotton thread. But even then, once I've got it on the needle, I pull the thread over a lump of wax to add a thin coating to it. This is hugely to get the thread to forget the tight curls it has learned on the spool, which make it likely to snarl and be a pain.
There's also a whole thing where like... most modern thread isn't made for handsewing. A hand-sewn seam has one length of thread, two if it's doubled back. A sewing machine has two threads, twined together in a way that's really strong. (Technically it's "couched", not sewn, which takes people a bit of work to understand sometimes.) Overlock machines use three or four or five threads to make a seam. All of this leans the balance of demand in mass-produced thread towards stuff that is thin and lightweight, won't create a seam that is too bulky, but not particularly strong or smooth. If you buy cheap thread, that's what you'll probably get. If I want thread in a very specific colour, polyester thread gives me more choices, but is much less nice to sew with.
(There's also a whole thing about polyester, a petroleum byproduct, being way cheaper and easier to produce than natural fibers like cotton, silk, linen, or wool.)
I'm guessing professionally manufactured thread conditioners avoid some of the pitfalls of my beeswax, which responds to me coating the thread too thickly by shedding wax along the fabric as I sew, in a way that kind of looks like dandruff. But meh, I can live with that.

A couple of days ago, I was collecting seeds from the milkweed pods in our yard. Having not done this before, but being fully aware of the fuzzy stuff that flies out of the pods, I was battling fuzz (technically, "floss") as I was pulling off and storing the seeds. Then I got smart, and decided to cut a slit in the pods and then gently pull out the mass of floss and seeds, and then just pulling the seeds off and dropping then into the container. As I was doing that, I noticed how super soft the floss was as I pulled it fresh out of the pods, and wondered........do any clothing manufacturers use this stuff? Did a Google search, and learned....yep!
Excerpt from this story from Happy Eco News:
As consumers demand more eco-conscious apparel, brands are getting creative with natural materials that keep warmth in and environmental harm out. One unlikely hero emerging from prickly planted fields is the common milkweed—yes, literally plucked straight from the wild. While best known as the sole food source for iconic, struggling Monarch butterflies, milkweed’s hidden potential is nestled right inside its fluffy, silken floss. This fleecy fiber is an amazing natural insulator and is finding a new application in jackets, parkas, boots, and ski gloves for humans.
As outdoor apparel companies race to reduce environmental impacts, milkweed clothing insulation is proving a promising substitute for conventional insulation fillers—one aligned with cleaner agricultural systems. Its hollow-cored fluff offers an animal-friendly, biodegradable alternative to goose down. Unlike petroleum-based synthetics like polyester fibers, milkweed fills garments with a regeneratively sourced material that decomposes rather than lingering for centuries in landfills.
With conscious consumerism accelerating across industries, apparel buyers now consider impacts far beyond cost and quality when evaluating purchases. An unlikely hero from both suffering North American grasslands and climate crosshairs is rapidly gaining traction as a sustainable insulation material – common milkweed floss. Beyond keeping heat in and winter out with insulating performance rivaling goose down, milkweed rates exceptionally on multiple sustainability indicators resonant with eco-conscious consumers.
As a native perennial thriving on marginal lands, milkweed flourishing requires no irrigation, fertilizers or pesticides – regrowing reliably year after year. From a toxicity and allergen standpoint, milkweed avoids issues associated with many synthetic insulations or down. And supporting milkweed crop expansion helps reverse monarch butterfly declines blamed on agricultural habitat loss. For shoppers concerned over microplastics shedding into waterways from standard fleece, milkweed offers a soft, homegrown, biodegradable alternative. In short, milkweed checks all the boxes for socially mindful consumers seeking future-focused apparel that balances functionality with ethical, regenerative supply supporting threatened pollinators.
Signaling the momentum of milkweed clothing insulation, major brands like Patagonia are incorporating the fluff through novel partnerships with companies like Vegeto Textiles. Dedicated milkweed plantings bandwidth habitat zones while fibers make their way into garments. Other types of textile manufacturers are also jumping on board, some with announced plans to insulate blankets and quilts with milkweed.
Still, despite its promise, milkweed clothing insulation remains in its infancy. Technological barriers to processing millions of floss strands into a stable textile filling have just recently been worked out. Machinery and techniques to update this long-known application concept into a scalable commercial reality. Companies have worked for years honing best practices for taking raw milkweed fluff through cleaning, drying, and fiber alignment steps to transform fuzzy floss into outdoor-ready filling. Advancements in the coming decade will further improve integration potential across diverse textile products, opening doors for milkweed clothing insulation in everything from t-shirts to winter boots.

Are different makers of inmate jumpsuits using different materials or are they all the same? If they're different what's your favorite for comfort and least favorite?
Yes.
First, there are makers like Bob Barker, Liberty (great prison uniform maker name!), Acme, Charm-Tex, Hard Time and others.
These companies make jumpsuits in a variety of colors and stripes. They use a polyester and cotton twill for durability.
Then there are the Federal and State Prison industries. 39 states and the Feds manufacture uniforms "in house" using inmate labor. Some rare uniforms are 100% cotton and made from fibers grown on the prison farms. Others use the highly durable poly/cotton combo
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
My favorite is a 100% cotton white jumpsuit from Texas. It's breathable and roomy and I could lounge around in one all day!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
My least favorite is a Bob Barker velcro closure jumpsuit. The fabric is thick and scratchy and the velcro closure is a pain in the ass!

Sustainable Fashion: A Guide to Ethical Choices Sustainable Fashion: A Guide to Ethical Choices
In today's world, conscious consumerism is on the rise. People are increasingly aware of the impact their choices have on the environment and society. This shift has also extended to the fashion industry, leading to a growing demand for sustainable and ethical clothing.
What is Sustainable Fashion?
Sustainable fashion refers to clothing and accessories that are produced in a way that minimizes environmental impact and ensures fair labor practices. It encompasses everything from the choice of materials to the manufacturing processes and the overall lifecycle of a garment.
Why is Sustainable Fashion Important?
Environmental Impact: The fashion industry is one of the world's largest polluters. By choosing sustainable options, you can help reduce waste, conserve resources, and minimize carbon emissions.
Ethical Considerations: Sustainable fashion ensures that workers are treated fairly and that the production process does not exploit people or the planet.
Quality and Durability: Sustainable garments are often made with higher quality materials and better construction techniques, ensuring they last longer and reduce waste.
How to Choose Sustainable Fashion:
Research Brands: Look for brands that prioritize sustainability in their practices. Many brands now have certifications or labels that indicate their commitment to ethical and environmentally friendly production.
Consider Materials: Opt for natural fibers like organic cotton, linen, and bamboo, which are renewable and biodegradable. Avoid synthetic fabrics like polyester, which are derived from fossil fuels and can release harmful chemicals during production.
Check for Fair Trade Certifications: Fair Trade labels guarantee that the products were made under fair working conditions and that workers received a living wage.
Buy Less, Wear More: Invest in high-quality, timeless pieces that you can wear for years to come. Reduce impulse purchases and focus on building a sustainable wardrobe.
Support Secondhand and Vintage: Give pre-loved clothing a new life by shopping at thrift stores, consignment shops, or online marketplace
Tumblr media
Sustainable Fashion Tips:
Wash Clothes Less Frequently: Excessive washing can contribute to the degradation of fabrics and release microplastics into the water.
Air Dry Clothes: Avoid using a dryer, which can shrink or damage garments and consume a lot of energy.
Repair and Mend: Instead of discarding damaged clothes, learn to repair or mend them to extend their lifespan.
Donate or Recycle: When you're ready to part with old clothes, donate them to charity or recycle them. Many clothing retailers now have recycling programs.
By making conscious choices and supporting sustainable fashion brands, you can contribute to a more ethical and environmentally friendly fashion industry. Together, we can create a future where style and sustainability go hand in hand.

I second the person who was talking about polyester being the sticking point for the shirts--I've been following for ages because I love your design sense and color choices, but I don't wear skirts much and between overheating issues & personal sustainability goals I've stopped buying synthetic fabrics. I LOVE the designs and several of them are in color combos I'd love to have in my button-up wardrobe, but alas I know I will not wear a polyester shirt. I'm mentally comparing them to Morningwitch, who does similar graphic cotton short sleeve button-ups for $50 each, and I'd be willing to potentially pay more than that for something as striking as the desert sunset button-up in 100% cotton (idk how scales/suppliers compare), but it would *probably* just be one if the price went any higher. Anyways, I'm wishing you good luck! Sucks about the numbers. They are really stunning designs.
i adore polina's work! i have a couple of her old button ups, which use the same fabric mine have now, but i haven't bought any of her cotton ones so i'm not sure if they're a texture i could wear or not.
(i have unfortunately had bad luck with other small artist natural fiber button ups and found them too rough for my textural sensitivities, so between that and me already owning enough clothing, i haven't bought any more in quite a while)
it's also important to note that polina spent an entire year (maybe longer) and a not insignificant amount of money searching for a natural fiber option for her shirts and that because shirts are her staple item (like skirts are mine), she sells significantly more of them than i do (even before making the switch to cotton), which enables her to drive down her PPU (price per unit) slightly and also charge less for them.
also, when the issue of sustainability comes up, it's not as simple as natural fiber vs. synthetic fiber. everything from the high cost in water for growing cotton, to the fuel cost for transporting it, and then its shorter lifespan (which is part of the point, i know, that natural fiber degrades faster, but it also means longterm you are buying more garments), as well as ethical concerns about labor rights...
in my experience when it comes to being a small brand functioning at my size or smaller, you can typically pick one of the following (if even that): natural fiber, ethical labor, or affordable price point. i have personally chosen to prioritize ethical labor over everything else while doing my best to keep my price points as reasonable as possible without undercutting myself. payroll and office space are expensive. 😅
of course, if you sell a higher volume, you can not only negotiate a lower PPU based on volume of sales (a factory will make more money from your business if you buy 10,000 shirts for $10/piece than if you buy 1,000 shirts for $12/piece*) but you can also get away with a lower margin because you're expecting to sell more units to customers. imagine selling 10,000 shirts for $25/ea instead of 1,000 for $35/ea. even with a profit margin of $15/ea instead of $23/ea, you would only need to sell about 1,534 shirts of your 10,000 to make the same net profit and you'd have almost another 8500 shirts you could keep selling.
*these are not real numbers just an example for easy math and to show how stupid manufacturing math is
