Handwoven Gardens

The primary theme of “Handwoven Gardens” is sustainable architecture and an ecological method of covering buildings with plants. Garments in this playful and organic woman’s wear collection are made sustainable by mainly using hemp and linen. Each fabric has been deconstructed and reconstructed in an exploratory process of hand weaving. The design of each piece celebrates the relationship between the two fundamental ideas of womenswear and city cleaning. All the plant-enhanced garments clean the city air while also offering eco-conscious fashion.
