One of the primary commitments of siëstaparis is the use of linen as the raw material for its clothing; an intentional and caring choice, both ecological and stylistic.
So let's dive quickly into the world of linen to understand the brand's vision; from its exploitation to the end of life of the garment, linen is a perfect material!
in a few points:
- It is a natural fiber which is mostly produced in Europe and particularly in France.
- Its production requires few chemicals and little water since rainwater is enough for the plant to grow.
- Its transformation does not use chemicals but a mechanical technique that requires the use of little water.
- Light and soft, it feels great to wear. It has a thermoregulatory function that allows it to be worn all year round.
- Its fiber is very resistant. Linen clothes can therefore be kept for a long time!
- At the end of the garment's life, linen is totally biodegradable and recyclable.
