HEMP IS A DREAM FABRIC FOR SUSTAINABLE DESIGNERS
Hemp is actually one of the oldest textiles in existence, dating back to almost 10,000 years. But since it disappeared for a couple of years in between, people are now trying to understand it all over again. History is definitely repeating itself- this time for the better.
The world may have unfairly banned Hemp for looking like Marijuana, but the humble plant remains selfless as ever. It uses far less water than cotton to grow and yet it gives you a similar warmth and familiarity on being used as a garment.
What worked for Hemp, has worked for thousands of years for mankind- its strength and also its ability to retain its shape, that helps the fabric look new for a very long time. Like fine wine, the more you use it, the softer it gets. You’ve heard about fabrics wearing out, but this one wears in!
Hemp is also naturally resistant to moldy and ultraviolet light. It’s porous nature allows it in being more absorbent, which means it’s perfect for tropical climates. Not only that, the fabric is also thermoregulating which means that it‘ll keep you warm in winters and cool in summers.
We can continue talking about Hemp because there is so much to discover about this crop and with our resources dwindling at the speed of light, Hemp can really be the game changer for sustainable fabrics and therefore, sustainable fashion. In a world of synthetic fabrics, Hemp seems to provide the answer to a question that is now being repeatedly asked- How do we become more sustainable in our choices?
Yes 100% fine spinning Hemp is truly very expensive, so we also used blended composition to help the cost, check in if you are interested in Hemp.
