Milano UNICA held in Shanghai Intertextile recently is an Italian fabric exhibition. Sustainable fashion becomes the hottest topic. VITALE BARBERIS CANONICO is an Italian family wool mill and the world's largest exporter of superior woolen fabrics. And it exhibits its latest achievements in sustainability: low-carbon and environmentally-friendly fabrics of H.O.P.E. series and the first sustainability report of VITALE. The houndstooth woolen overcoat under the theme of "natural colors" is made of camel hair, alpaca or Spain Moretta wool fibers. No colorants or dyestuff are used in the production, and the original color of animal hair is kept. It is in line with the opinion that natural yarns in original colors are used to make the knitwear. Therefore, the natural originality of yarns is emphasized, and noise pollution, water pollution and air pollution in wool processing is effectively reduced.
ICICLE releases NATURAL WAY sustainable capsule series for A/W 19/20, which is in line with the idea of sustainable yarns of VITALE BARBERIS CANONICO. The series obeys the design philosophy of anti-excess. The brand chooses cashmere in original colors, yak wool and worsted wool, and adopts Italian natural vegetable dyeing technique to be sustainable. Vegetable dyeing could effectively reduce the harm to the environment and fibers.
NATURAL WAY sustainable capsule series adopts fine cashmere from Inner Mongolia and Afghanistan. Dyeing is abandoned and the original color of cashmere is retained. After hand-carding, sorting is begun according to the natural color of cashmere. Chemical dyeing is abandoned to capture natural subtle color changes of cashmere and show the beauty of nature. Undyed cashmere is divided into three grades: white cashmere, green cashmere and purple cashmere. White cashmere is the most precious one, as warm as a jade. Green cashmere has a layered sense with warm grey, and is the "advanced grey" from grassland. Purple cashmere is light camel, as calm, elegant and good-looking as the earth. Thus, the cashmere in original colors has high cost. The processing could effectively reduce the harm to the environment, and bring healthier and more comfortable protection to our body.
