Stella McCartney is a luxury fashion house that has been a PVC-free brand since 2010, with ambitions to eventually only use recycled, recyclable and biobased alternatives.
In line with this goal, the brand has teamed up with Radiant Matter to debut the world’s first garment crafted from BioSequins. Made of plant-derived cellulose, the BioSequins sleeveless jumpsuit is plastic-free, biodegradable, and non-toxic.
Although not yet commercially available, Stella McCartney says that the BioSequins garment is intended to embody the brand’s DNA and showcase the potential for sustainable materials.
“It is so special to see how Stella McCartney has worked with our Biosequins to bring them to life on this beautiful jumpsuit,” says Elissa Brunato, founder of Radiant Matter. “We have loved her uncompromising approach to sustainability and aesthetics, which are reflected in any decision, down to the fabric and thread choice, resulting in a stunning yet fully plant-derived garment.”
“I am amazed by the iridescent beauty of our BioSequin all-in-one – handcrafted in my London atelier from plant-derived, non-toxic sequins that are even more stunning than conventional options,” says McCartney. “Who says sustainability can’t be sexy?”
