The Cupro we use, also known as Bemberg™ is made from natural base materials such as cotton linter or cotton waste. It is chemically transformed into a synthetic fiber and is manufactured in a 99% closed loop process by Asahi Kasei. Cupro is very skin-friendly, anti-static and anti-bacterial.

To make sure you can enjoy this garment for a long time please use liquid detergent only and wash it on a low temperature and a low spin cycle (30° and max 400 spin/delicates) or a hand wash cycle. We recommend to tumble dry or steaming the item in order to achieve the original velvet look and touch.

Due to the structure of the fabric the pieces are prone to white streaks after washing which can be related to water hardness or a full washing machine.

The sewing thread we use is made of polyester, the only plastic in our products. We tried lyocell for 2 seasons to remain completely plastic-free but those yarns were breaking fast and the repair had to be done at local tailor shops using  polyester yarn again… that made no sense and therefore we chose polyester yarn over the natural alternative.

A shrinkage of 5% may occur! (Which translates to 5cm per 100cm in total length, please consider this when you order.)
