♻️recycle♻️Now that the fashionshows are over we can focus on some other projects. One is making a #fauxchenille skirt. We got about 3 boxes with leftover clean used #linen cushioncovers from @branderhorstjolanda of @wereldwijvenateliers They recycle a lot and got the #belgiumlinen from a hotel. But noticed that the very weared out cushioncovers were kind of dead stock in their studio. They used a lot allready and these were not used and Jolanda knows I love linen and also plantdye. She asked me if I could use them. And for sure I can. The fauxchenille is a technic I learned from @carolinebartletttextiles at the @hawarnl studio and it is a good way to use the fabric that is very fragile and has tears. By using the strongest as a bottem layer it will be warm, soft and strong. ♻️To have rectangle pieces, I cut the covers open and now I had a new leftover......the strong linen seams with the @libecohome tags. They would be lovely to use for simple #weaving and maybe my #fashioninterns will like to learn....soooo😬I hope they enjoy it! (The pictures of the fauxchenille will follow in next post)
We think it is important to support other women and not forget ourself that all women are beautiful. Not only the girls you see in the media. Lets get real and support eachother to show the beauty in real people who don’t need photoshop to shine. We love girls in all sizes! #bodypositivity #truebeauty The picture is from our studio. #plantdyed #silk #pleated #slowfashion #ethicalwedding #greenwedding
Another lady to thank is Imme. @lady_gwendolyn_ Imme is our #fashionintern from @schoolvoormode she wears a little cape of #local #dutch #wool a special project of @ecologicaltextiles over a silk top dyed in #eucalyptus from my garden from another project near to my heart. @coccconcraftsloom and a mesh skirt that is #plantdyed and is a #recycled item from years ago from our own studio. We do not buy polyester or nylon anymore. This skirt is a favorite of our models and we decided to keep it and it is only available for rent. We have a lovely replacement for mesh found in a silk organza that can be ordered in your size. 🌸Design: @ecotextilestudio 🌸Model: @lady_gwendolyn_ 🌸picture: @aquinoxmedia 🌸location: @fairfashionfestival 🌸make up: @green_glam_mua
Thank you @laris_duarte18 #fashionintern @albedamode for working so hard last weekend @dutchsustainablefashionweek and @fairfashionfestival #slowfashion #bridalfair #sustainablefashion #plantdyeing
Thank you @weiyuhung_design ! It is hard to find the right present for someone who wants to be sustainable and is in the middle of aiming for #minimalism 🌸🌸🌸you found the one thing I realy like. Combining #asia and #europe #delftsblauw #chineseporcelain and my hunger for reading. And it is realy functional too. It holds my book open and I can read and do something else...like #slowstitching 🌸🙏🏼🌸

#sustainablebride ‘s but we will show you later in other pictures how you can use all the items of the outfits #styled in other ways. You will be surprised! Not only the fabric and the #plantdyes are #fair and #sustainable , the design is clever too. Make an appointment in the studio. #sustainablefashion #sustainablebride #ethicalclothing collection #sustainablewedding make up @green_glam_mua #fff2019
I picked this picture that was made by @jannekevanheiningen because it shows the spirit of joy of this weekend and our presentation at the @fairfashionfestival a festival all put together by young volunteers with a common goal. If we all do what we do best, in an honest way. We can be the change in the world together. Festivals like this is a great place to find like minded people. Thanks @young.and.fair for all the work on this festival! It was so good to see the other brands too and we had fun backstage! Special thanks for the work of @evelinevrijn this new way of showing was brave and we liked it a lot. #marijkebongers #sustainablefashion #ethicalfashion #ethicalbride #greenwedding @lady_gwendolyn_ @laris_duarte18 @jannekevanheiningen @veravanvelsen @yaaantje @antonia_wiersma
Let’s first celebrate!!! What a weekend it was🥳 Our Friday was in Amsterdam @dutchsustainablefashionweek 2019 as backstage supportteam for the very talented designer @weiyuhung_design (yes, have a look on his amazing work on his page and read some of his posts to learn more about him! It is not a surprise that the world is starting to discover this hero of us.) Three of our #fashioninterns and I #did work hard and long hours, but enjoyed so much to be able to experience that incredable show. @lady_gwendolyn_ @schoolvoormode @jannekevanheiningen and @laris_duarte18 @albedamode #sustainablefashion #marijkebongers #ecotextilestudio #knitting_inspire
