The floral dress is made of upcycled textile waste and decorated with handmade botanical monoprints. Exhibited first time at Circular Fashion Days at CIFF fair in Copenhagen.
Elegant dress with invisible zipper in the back.
Size is about 36/38 with a waist measure at ca. 80 cm
The fabric is originally table cloths from Vraa Dampvaskeri which has been turned into this sustainable dress, made locally in the studio in Odense.
The textile is handprinted by Nathalie Gaia Dahl, who has collected local plants from the city space.
The piece illustrates how we can rethink textile waste and discover the beauty in Nature´s flora that often are weeded away.
Before this textile was made into a botanical dress, it served as a table cloth in Danish restaurants and were ment to end up as textile waste. Now this upcycled material will be joining fancy dinner parties once more - just as a slow fashion creation.
The dress can be either hand washed or machine washed - we recommend 30 degrees. The plant print with not fade even after several washes. Ironing with steam is also fine.
