What Is Eco-Chic?
Eco-chic is what we like to call garments that are made with a focus on being environmentally mindful, low waste and 100% stylish. These tasseled hip scarves are upcycled, meaning the fabric has been repurposed from already existing garments and textiles.
How does this work?
We start with a premium vintage textiles that are unable to be used as traditional garments. These textiles are gently cleaned, pressed and custom tailored into our fabulous one of a kind belt bases. Our tassels are typically made with repurposed yarns, coming. Typically only the lining on the inside of the waistband and ties use newly produced components.
This type of fabric reuse is one of the best things we can do for the environment. It helps unused garments find a new purpose and reduces the amount of textiles that end up in landfills. A win for you and a win for the planet!
