How to turn fashion waste into healthy ecosystems

"Beauty, function and non-toxic decomposition coexist in this simple flax flower. We challenge the fashion and textile industries to match that performance."

We are breaking the law.

"Welcome to planet Earth. During your stay, please note that the laws of physics apply here, and all things eventually scatter. The laws have worked for millions of years and helped grow the lush place you see today. They still work—but now we humans disperse stuff unusable to any other living creature. Complex systems follow simple rules. We can scale systems change in fashion if we rebuild in a way that follows these laws. 

"The Biomimicry Institute is leading a two-year, multi-million dollar project to demonstrate scalable new pathways for ~92 million tonnes of fashion waste discarded annually by embracing true decomposition—the way leaves break down into soil—that builds healthy ecosystems."
