AWARE

by VEROMODA

It’s hard to ignore the impact the fashion industry has on the planet and the environmental challenges we face. At times, it can feel as if fashion and the journey towards a more sustainable future are at odds with each other. AWARE is VERO MODA’s first step towards bridging this gap between seasonal fashion and a more sustainable world. 

FABRICS WITH A STORY

Organic Materials

ORGANIC COTTON

Organic cotton is grown without the use of harmful chemicals like pesticides and fertilizers, and its seeds are not genetically modified. It is also the only cotton standard that is 100% GMO free. Aside from the environmental benefits of organically grown cotton, the absence of hazardous chemicals also helps to improve the work environment of the local farmer. Organic cotton can be traced directly back to the field, as it helps sustain the land it is grown on through crop rotations, and uses less energy and water.

LINEN

Linen is a textile made from the fibres of flax plants, and is one of the best fabrics options for many reasons. It is strong, breezy, anti-bacterial, and gentle on your skin and the planet. The production of linen requires virtually no water, and emits a quarter of the carbon as cotton per pound of fibre. 

RECYCLED MATERIALS

RECYCLED POLYESTER

 Recycled polyester is a synthetic material made from waste items such as plastic bottles, used polyester garments and fabric leftover from manufacturing. E.g. plastic bottles: 1 -shirt cans be made from 2 bottles. Recycling polyester saves natural resources and reduces the amount of textile waste.

RECYCLED COTTON

Recycled cotton is made from manufacturing waste like leftover fabric scraps or from used cotton garments and textiles that would otherwise go to landfill. Recycling cotton reduces the waste of a natural resource like water (recycling 1 ton of cotton can save 275 000 litres of water and requires no new farmland.) This option allows us to have all the same benefits as virgin cotton, but without the environmental impact.

RECYCLED WOOL

Recycling wool saves natural resources such as water and energy. Instead of shipping wool to be disposed of at landfills, recycling wool helps reduce the amount of textile waste. Recycled wool is reborn and later refashioned into new clothes.

INNOVATIVE MATERIALS

TENCEL®

LyocellTENCEL® is a semi-synthetic fibre made from renewable wood materials, manufactured from fast growing trees such as eucalyptus. Unlike most fabrics, TENCEL™ production is done without the use of pesticides or insecticides. TENCEL® Lyocell is also fully biodegradable and economical in its use of energy and natural resources. With properties almost identical to cotton, this fabric is also ultra-soft on skin, absorbs moisture and regulates temperature.     

A more sustainable fashion choice.
