“Where fashion is designed to look great long after the seasonal trend is dead”
Using dead stock designer fabrics, can be a sustainable option for the fashion industry. The fashion industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world. A huge amount of clothing is thrown away every year, contributing to waste issues and resource depletion.
Dead stock fabrics are excess fabrics left over after a designer or manufacturer completes their production cycle. The fabrics are then not destroyed, but reused to make new garments, for example.
To reduce the amount of waste in the fashion industry, using dead stock fabrics is a good solution. This not only reduces the impact of the fashion industry on the environment, but can also help reduce the pressure on natural resources needed to produce new fabrics. It also contributes to a circular economy, preserving the value of materials and reducing waste.
Halsduk by Esmee makes extensive use of dead stock fabrics. Think of designers, such as Dries van Noten en Haider Ackermann. Mainly exclusive designer fabrics made by artisan methods. It is the gems among fabrics that are picked out to create new items. Like, for example, the kimono stijl jasjes of Halsduk. The supply and amount of meters of dead stock fabrics varies from time to time. As a result, there is a chance that only 1 or 2 jackets can be made from 1 fabric. Unique, then!
