Some highlights from our week at @boccadivalle experimenting with natural dyes, eco-prints and learning about the local wool economy and its history 🤍

We spent a week following wool through the mountains of Abruzzo.

We became curious about the sheep, the landscape and the region’s textile history. Then we started meeting the people working with wool today, visiting old mills and dye workshops, and learning how much of the local processing network has disappeared.

There was a lot to take in, and plenty we’re still thinking about. Our new article follows what we learned about Abruzzo’s wool economy, how it became disconnected, what localism requires in practice, and the people looking for new possibilities for its wool today.

Curious as to how DETOX was made? The fabric we selected is made from regenagri cotton, hemp, and Lenzing’s Refibra, as well as natural dyes, cotton sewing thread, and zero water dying.

Oil-based materials have significant social, environmental and political implications, but also implications on our personal health, which is why we wanted to explore completely eliminating them in fashion using denim as our lens.

3D design software and talent have been improving since its rise a couple of years ago. Using SFI Studio’s team of 3D designers, we were able to go from design concept to final garment with ZERO physical samples made!!

With low-impact processes at the heart of this collection, 3D was a key element to showcase the reduced wastage and thus the carbon footprint of a garment.

#Cotton is rarely traceable to a single pair of hands. Harvests may be aggregated and processed together long before the fibre becomes a T-shirt, pair of jeans, or bedsheet.

The idea of knowing the exact farmer behind a garment can sound intimate and reassuring, but cotton supply chains do not always work that way, and forcing them into that narrative can flatten reality. It can turn farmers into marketing devices, or reduce complex communities into a few names and faces chosen to stand in for an entire region.

So if connecting one garment to one farmer doesn’t necessarily reflect the reality of cotton production, why are we still encouraging you to meet farmers and hear their stories?

Simply because data cannot tell you everything. Farmers bring context that #traceability systems cannot capture on their own. They can speak to the pressures, trade-offs, local realities, and definitions of progress that shape what cotton production actually looks like on the ground. That knowledge comes from relationships with farmers, cooperatives, ginners, and local organisations who can tell you what a season actually looked like. Not as a story, as intelligence.

Good traceability should help us see the system more clearly, not be reduced to a country level nor to a neat story about one farmer and one field.

Our fourth #WhoMadeMyCotton report explores this idea in much more depth. Read the full report through the link in bio.

#WhoMadeMyCotton Step 4: The Farmer’s Ecosystem is out! #worldcottonday

For years we’ve been travelling through #cotton fields all around the world 🌍, meeting local traders, ginners, farmers, and the many people from the organisations farmers work with, to get to the roots of cotton traceability (literally).

What we learnt radically shifted our perspective on traceability, and we want to hear from you, whether it resonates or not.

Who grows cotton, and who turns it into fibre? 🌿 Who sells what to whom? What challenges do they face? And how do we, as fashion and textile professionals, move beyond broad-stroke supply chain mapping to something we call ‘relational traceability’? 🚜
