Do you really know what your clothes are made from and does it fit with your values?

One of the things I am very passionate about is the fabric or more specifically the fibre that garments are made from.  The fibre content of the garments you wear has a big impact on so many aspects of the fit,  cost,  performance,  look, drape and handle (how the fabric feels next to your skin) of a garment.  

In this podcast I explore the difference between man made and natural fibres and cover off the pros and cons of each.  

Natural fibres are:

  • Cotton 
  • Wool
  • Silk
  • Linen 
  • Manmade are:

    • Nylon
    • Polyester
    • Elastane
    • Natural fibres that require a lot of chemical processing:

      • Rayon
      • Viscose 
      • Bamboo
