From a village loom to a global wardrobe.

In Kancheepuram, Tamil Nadu, I met the women who’ve spent decades handweaving silk sarees.

Today, these sarees are finding new life through platforms like Pepagora, which connects small producers like Khadi Bhavan to B2B buyers worldwide—without middlemen.

This isn’t fast fashion. This is slow, intentional legacy.

“Want to source eco-friendly textiles? Start with understanding the fiber. Cotton, wool, and jute are biodegradable, but their processing methods matter. Look for hand-spun or low-impact dyed materials.”

🚀 Kickstart 2025 – We present: BioPoly!

As part of our early-stage funding program KICKSTART, the Hof University team "BioPoly" is exploring the potential of recycled, biodegradable polyester yarns. 🧵🌱

The goal: develop a prototype within 6 months that could lead to a sustainable start-up in the textile sector.

Governments, businesses and individuals must all work together to reduce waste, in this case in the fashion and textile sector. Achieving zero waste requires active contributions from governments, businesses, and consumers.

The fashion industry’s current linear model of overproduction and overconsumption has significant environmental and social impacts. Over 92 million tonnes of textile waste are generated annually and of course it's bad.

With my current work I’m using up old socks! Part of my plan for last year and this is to only use textiles I already own and not get anything new (except batting and thread eventually!)
