Designer's Statement
Tuba Ergin
I am proud to have created the first warm, sustainable skirt. Especially with these cork details – it was a really difficult handwork to work the cork with the Tencel.
Material
This piece is made of 100% silky cupro, also called “vegan silk”. Cupro is made from the remains of cotton production and is biodegradable. Cupro is good for your skin because the chemicals used to make it are certified and completely risk-free to your skin and the environment.
This is important. Many studies have proven that clothing containing harmful substances can make us sick if it touches our skin. All the more reason for us to make sure that only natural, healthy and clean fabrics are used to make our clothes.
Fair Wear
We combine eco-friendly fabrics with fair production! This sustainable pieces was sewn in a small, family-run atelier in Istanbul under fair conditions. Our sewers all have insurance, a work contract and a wage that is far above the minimum wage in Turkey. If you would like to know more our producers, click here.
The skirt was designed as a combination with the Kibele and Maluma jacket. Feel free to look around for them to complete your outfit.
