This Shirt Is Bananas—Creating A Fruity Alternative For Wasteful Fast Fashion #WearableWednesday
The Fabric company Pyaratex is making sustainable fabrics from nettles and bananas. More from DesignTaxi:
Danish brand Ganni has designed a tracksuit created out of banana waste. The innovative production technique was developed by Pyratex and is being launched under Ganni’s Future of the Fabrics initiative.
Once bananas are harvested, the tree dies. In order for it to regrow fruit, it would need to be heavily pruned, which in turn produces a large amount of waste.
