LEAF & LOOM presents wearable botanical archives on fabric at BioArt Laboratories. We offer a zero-waste fashion alternative by transferring plant pigments into fibers through a careful steaming and boiling process, without synthetic chemicals.
Nature's Palette
Nature holds the most vibrant color palette for our wardrobes. The Art of Sustainable Fashion: Ecoprint reveals how local flora and everyday kitchen remnants can permanently dye and pattern clean silk, cotton, and linen without the use of synthetic chemicals.
