What type of fabric is used for the Florence Blazer, Vienna Short, and Paris Scrunchie?
Lyocell.
Since Lyocell is derived from cellulose (i.e. trees) it is both sustainable and organic, with the most common sources being eucalyptus, bamboo, and beech as these are fast growing varieties that do not require irrigation or pesticides and are often grown on land that is otherwise unsuitable for alternative uses. After harvesting, the wood is chipped and immersed in a solvent to extract raw cellulose before being passed through spinnerets that elongate the fibers. These fibers are then washed, dried, cut, carded and spun into yarn that’s ultimately woven into a fabric.
Lyocell is arguably the most eco-friendly fabric. Not only is it sourced from organic and renewable sources, but it is processed via a low energy, low water, closed-loop system that recycles over 99.5% of the chemicals/solvents used in production, with the remaining 0.5% discharged as non-hazardous effluent.
Pros:
-
Breathable: Lyocell is highly breathable, even more than fabrics like cotton.
-
Fabric texture: Silky smooth, drapes well and is soft, lightweight, and comfortable against the skin.
-
Moisture wicking: Has great moisture wicking properties, which will keep you dry, fresh and comfortable. An ideal fabric for summer.
-
Biodegradable: Lyocell is fully biodegradable as the manufacturing process is free from harmful by-products.
-
Durable: The fabric is strong and long-lasting and does not wrinkle easily.
-
Great for sensitive skin: The fabric does not rub or chafe and is ideal for those who suffer from eczema or dermatitis, or anyone who loves the feeling of silk.
-
Antibacterial: Due to its capacity to manage moisture lyocell does not hold odors like performance activewear and thus it’s suitable for multiple wears between washes, which saves water and energy.
