SILK-WOOL shirt Archimedes Royal Blue

With our Pepper Vally® “Hellenic BOHO” line, we show that luxury and fashion do not mean having to compromise on environmental respect. If there is one fabric that brings luxury style, performance and nature together in perfect harmony, it’s merino wool. In combination with Mulberry Silk of certified origin you enjoy sustainable luxury with the sleek lustrous touch of even natural silk. As much as 35 per cent of microplastics in the marine environment are fibers from synthetic clothing, an amount that continues to increase. In contrary, natural fibres, such as wool and silk, are readily biodegrade, offering a less impactful solution. Even more if an item is manufactured following UN sustainable development goals; you enjoy a special item made ethical and with respect to people and planet maximize the benefits for our ecosystem. What is Mulberry Silk and what’s the difference from other silk? Mulberry silk is the best silk that can be manufactured in natural environments. Each strand of this pure white substance is both smooth and unbroken, and when knitted, results in a beautiful fabric that is pleasing to all of the senses. Although may seem insignificant, the unbroken nature of mulberry silk instead of broken & uneven threads, results in a whole host of benefits for wearers. Mulberry silk is both fine and light, making the touch of it an unforgettable sensation. Better still, it is more uniform than its wild counterparts because it is collected from unbroken cocoons. This ensures that the entire expanse of the fabric is smooth to the touch rather than an uneven patchwork. Combined with its refined appearance, it is no coincidence that mulberry silk has been one of the most prized fabrics in the world since ancient times. But silk is also as practical as it is luxurious. For example, the fabric is famous for its exceptional strength, as a strand of mulberry silk is stronger than a strand of steel of the same diameter. Furthermore, mulberry silk is a natural substance with no odor whatsoever, making it well-suited to the needs of consumers who are prone to suffering from allergies. • Fine Light
