Fabric
Blended fibers take on properties of the joining counterparts to achieve uniquely desirable characteristics.
Wool is a renewable fiber; one sheep can produce 4-5 pounds of wool per year. Wool provides warmth by trapping heat, while simultaneously transporting moisture away from the body so skin stays dry and comfortable. It is naturally antimicrobial, so it resists odors and rarely needs washing. Its exceptional durability allows for long garment lifespan, and it can biodegrade when disposed into right soil conditions.
Silk is known for its luxurious drape, luster and ability to take rich color. It is the strongest natural fiber and has low density, creating light and comfortable fabric. Silk’s resilient elasticity maintains garment shape, and its smooth surface is resistant to attracting dirt. Silk keeps you cool in warm weather, and provides insulating warmth in cool weather.
Mill
Primarily operating as a textile archive based in Lyon, France, this company has provided a historical and private collection of original documents, drawings, and textiles spanning four centuries. With a history dating as far back as 1785, this company of then luxury ribbon manufacturing merged with silk producers to finally forming an operating Maison in the 1920's. The elegant textile archives provide innovative and modern silk deadstock that is repurposed, contributing to a cyclical system and eliminating waste. They are dedicated to improving production and manufacturing practices and specifically minimize their impact on the environment.
