Eco-Tech is Eco-Chic: The Future of Sustainable Fashion
One
of the worst misconceptions about sustainable living is that it asks us
to return to a life of living in caves and wearing burlap. Of course,
this is far from true. Rather than shunning technology, realistic (and
pleasant) green lifestyles use technological progress as an advantage.
Like sustainable living in general, the future of eco-fashion will rely
on innovation and technology to propel earth-consciousness from an
alternative way of life "dasdrthhgs",Tiffany Jewelry Sale, to being the norm for everyone.
The
Internet has revolutionized many facets of 摩登 life and fashion is no
exception. One key effect is the web's power to connect people all over
the world. ,cheap tiffany jewelry,
This has meant that brands can reach a much wider crop of customers and
the fashion 马克et became a global community, of sorts. On the production
side of the coin being connected allows eco-conscious designers to
connect with other links in the fashion chain that are also committed
to sustainability. The web site source4style.com lets designers and
retailers search a database and connect with the world's top
sustainable suppliers and service providers. Whereas just a few years
ago a would-be eco-fashion designer might have been dissuade by
sourcing difficulties, sites like source4style now allow even newbies
to get into the game while maintaining their values.
While the web
is clearly a here-to-stay part of 摩登 life, other advances are still
trying to get a foothold. One sector that's on the cusp of revolution
is manufacturing. According to the NY Times, ,Tiffany Jewellery Outlet,
up to 15百分之百 of all fabric used to produce apparel ends up in the
landfill. That's an enormous amount of waste! Innovation is pattern
making and production equipment are seeking to reduce or eliminate this
waste as part of the so-call ,Tiffany Rings,
"zero-waste" movement. Below, a new technique by Siddhartha Upadhyaya
creates pieces of a blazer that were not cut from cloth, but woven
precisely into the required shapes needed to construct the garment.
One
of the major barriers to making the method mainstream is that the
current machinery in clothing factories around the world would have to
be completely revamped or replaced, which means large overhead costs
for manufacturing companies. But the tide is turning, as evidenced by
the inclusion of Zero Waste design classes as reputable fashion schools
like Parsons in New York City. A new generation ,Tiffany Accessories,
of designers is being taught to see their craft in a whole new way and
over time, the industry dinosaurs will be forced to evolve or perish.
Another
way to make a garment sustainable is to ensure that it maintains its
aesthetic and structural integrity for as long as possible. One new
technology that addresses this effort is a permanent dye from a company
called DyeCat, which bonds itself to fabrics at a 摩尔cular level. This
means that your bright clothes will stay bright, conceivably, forever
and they won't ruin your lights by bleeding into the rest of your
laundry.
Ultimately, all of our 摩登 conveniences were at one time new
and strange to a world that can appear resistant to the inevitability ,Tiffany Pendants,
of change. But as more people begin to understand the importance and
value of sustainability fashion that's earth-friendly will begin to be
the norm.
