Bio-invasive Library United Kingdom
A win-win solution for both biodiversity & fashion
The Bio-Invasive Textile Library is a sustainable solution that combines invasive plants and fashion technology. By utilizing invasive plants as raw materials for fibers and dyes, it aims to address biodiversity loss and promote ethical treatment of animals. The project focuses on achieving zero waste dyeing and technical production processes, utilizing wasted textiles for the development of ancillary bio-invasive materials. Innovative technologies such as "implanting," "felting," and "spinning" are employed to create new textiles, offering fashion designers a library of sustainable options.
