ROAD TO A MORE SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

Sustainability was always at the back of my mind but during my research for materials for my
Spring Summer Collection called "Another World" I came to a strong conclusion that I have
to educate myself and my clients regarding a more sustainable future in fashion. 
Sustainability doesn't always mean more natural fabrics because while carrying out my
research I realized that, while cotton may be better quality, the production of this fabric uses up
a lot of water. I always thought that more natural fabrics were also better for the environment
but that doesn't seem to be the case. 
As I delved into this subject and learned more about it, I realized that one of the main reasons
why the fashion industry is regarded as a problem for the environment is because all the fabrics
that brands purchase are not actually used. Having this in mind and knowing that I have also
purchased fabrics or printed fabrics that haven't been used in any of my collections, I went to
my office and started digging around. With patience and persistence I found some beautiful, soft
fabrics that were just perfect for a small pre-spring stay at home collection. I gathered my
favourite comfy clothes from my wardrobe and went straight to the VK team for a brief meeting.
That's how the first part of ‘Vassia's Comfy Closet’ was created.
