Natural Dyes
Natural dyes tell the story of our ancestors and clothing over time. Yet synthetic dyes revolutionized clothing production 167 years ago. However, our current practices often harm the Earth and our health through mass production and the use of materials like nylon and polyester. These materials introduce harmful chemicals and microplastics into the environment, while synthetic dyes pollute waterways.
