Iluna Group returns to Interfilière

For the SS24 Iluna focuses on the most precious lightness and intangibility with its Ultralight series of jacquardtronic laces reminiscent of the delicacy of Leavers.
This season, responsible developments did not stop at responsible ingredients and processes; in fact, the company focused on the circular economy! The stylistic research started from the company's historical archive, to give life to a collection that revisits the proposals in a "modern classic" key.
 
The company's design team recreated the iconic designs of the line, the heart of the Black Label proposal, ILUNA's signature line offering the finest laces. Focusing on upcycling, the team reworked archival stocks, creating new value through finishings, and reweaving from scratch only the missing widths in order to present a complete, coordinated underwear/nightwear range from allovers to galoons.

For the SS24 season the Iluna team continues its developments with GOTS-certified organic cotton in its galoons and allovers, to add a natural touch to its Green Label line.
Among the ingredients chosen by Iluna Group are: Renycle® and Q-NOVA®, both GRS-certified pre-consumer recycled polyamide yarns in addition to the recycled stretch ROICA™ EF by Asahi Kasei. Among the new technical developments on laces, Iluna then worked on variable elasticity modules, resulting in reinforced edges or zones of differentiated elasticity that can be variously positioned within the laces.
All this results in a comfortable, ultralight product that remains true to a high value of creativity and responsibility. The option is applicable to all the Iluna laces, with modular solutions at the customer's request on fashion items as well, where research continues on FSC-certified pre-dyed viscoses and unexpected metallic gleams with lurex.

Moreover, the continuous path through the new dimension of responsibility continues in several directions: experiments with 16 different natural dyestuffs; and continued investment in technologies that can ensure significant savings in water and energy consumption, including GREENDROP, the new GOTS-certified digital pigment printing system.
From athleisure to fashion, through lingerie to the world of high fashion, Iluna's lace continues to expand its applications, confirming its extreme versatility, remarkable performance and inimitable beauty.

Billi London: Accelerated degradation in Landfill

Billi London is shaping the future of fashion with eco legwear. Founded by Sophie Billi-Hardwick and Marie Bouhier in November 2020, the pair’s goal was to create durable and comfortable hosiery that was no longer seen as disposable or for single-use.
 
Each piece is made with innovative enhanced degradable yarns Amni Soul Eco® nylon and ROICA ™ V550 elastane. Amni Soul Eco® is degrading in a time of 5 years*, 20x faster than the normal 40–100-year timeframe. The materials break down into biomass and biogas, create renewable energy and do not leave behind microplastics in landfill. The soft yet chic fabrics have revolutionised the legwear industry as well as pioneering a change across the fashion sector which rarely goes beyond just using recyclable materials.

This year, Billi London was selected as one of only five brands to present as an Organic Exhibitor at the Salon International de la Lingerie (SIL) from 18-20 June at Porte de Versailles in Paris.

*In landfill conditions. Reference system: ASTM D5511 - Std test

Chantelle launcht nachhaltige Lingerie Serie

Nach erfolgreichem Auftakt in Frankreich bringt der Lingerie-Konzern Chantelle jetzt seine 100% recycelbare Serie Chantelle One auf den deutschen Markt – und revolutioniert damit die Dessous-Branche. War es bisher nicht möglich, einen aus bis zu 50 Einzelteilen und verschiedenen Komponenten bestehenden BH komplett wiederzuverwerten, lassen sich alle Produkte der neuen nachhaltigen Chantelle Serie vollständig recyceln und produzieren dabei keinen Abfall. Die Herstellung mit einer innovativen, lösungsmittelfreien Faser, die das übliche Elasthan ersetzt, macht es möglich.

Nach erfolgreichem Auftakt in Frankreich bringt der Lingerie-Konzern Chantelle jetzt seine 100% recycelbare Serie Chantelle One auf den deutschen Markt – und revolutioniert damit die Dessous-Branche. War es bisher nicht möglich, einen aus bis zu 50 Einzelteilen und verschiedenen Komponenten bestehenden BH komplett wiederzuverwerten, lassen sich alle Produkte der neuen nachhaltigen Chantelle Serie vollständig recyceln und produzieren dabei keinen Abfall. Die Herstellung mit einer innovativen, lösungsmittelfreien Faser, die das übliche Elasthan ersetzt, macht es möglich.

„Nachhaltigkeit ist seit langem ein zentrales Thema in unserem Unternehmen. Doch mit Chantelle One konnten wir nun eine Neuheit auf den Markt bringen, die das ganze Thema Umweltschutz, Recycling und Zero Waste noch mal auf eine neue Ebene hebt. Das ist unsere eindeutige Antwort auf die Anforderungen unserer Kundinnen“, erklärt Renaud Cambuzat, Creation & Image Director bei Chantelle. „Laut einer aktuellen Studie besitzen Frauen im Durchschnitt zehn BHs, getragen werden allerdings lediglich drei. Wir haben mit Chantelle One eine zeitlose, alltägliche Serie kreiert, die sich auf das Wesentliche konzentriert und reagieren damit auf den Wunsch nach bewusstem und nachhaltigem Konsum.“

Ein zukunftsorientierter Ansatz, der das Mode- ebenso wie das Umweltbewusstsein der Kundinnen gleichermaßen bedient. „Allein bei der Herstellung eines BHs gehen grundsätzlich 30% des Materials im Schneide- und Produktionsprozess verloren“, erläutert Marta Krall, Head of Communication bei Chantelle. „Warum Dessous bisher noch nicht zu 100% recycelt wurden, lässt sich deshalb relativ einfach erklären. Zum einen bestehen BHs aus vielen verschiedenen Einzelteilen und Materialien wie Bügel, Haken oder Träger und zum anderen ist das häufig in Wäschetextilien enthaltene Elasthan, in Kombination mit anderen Fasern, nur sehr schwer recycelbar. Insgesamt ein sehr aufwendiger, kostenintensiver und äußerst komplexer Prozess.“

Wird ein Produkt der Chantelle One Serie nicht mehr getragen, kann es retourniert werden und die Kundin erhält im Gegenzug einen Gutschein, der im Onlineshop eingelöst werden kann. Jeder einzelne Bestandteil des Produkts wird dann vollständig wiederverwertet. Die BHs und Slips werden, genauso, wie die Schnittabfälle aus der Produktion, komplett eingeschmolzen und zu Mikroperlen verarbeitet. Diese dienen wiederum der Herstellung neuer Chantelle One-BHs, indem daraus Bügel, Verschlüsse, Trägerschnallen etc. gemacht werden. Ein lückenloser Kreislauf, der absolut keine Abfälle hinterlässt.

Forward Design mit Chantelle One
Chantelle One gibt es in zwei Ausführungen: Chantelle One Mesh und Chantelle One Lace. Die Serien bestehen, je nach Farbe, jeweils aus drei bis vier BH-Schnittformen. Dabei stehen zwei BH-Modelle zur Auswahl, ein Triangel-BH ohne Bügel und ein Modell mit Bügeln sowie tiefem Ausschnitt, erhältlich in Mesh oder Spitze. Die Größen reichen von Cup B bis F, bzw. bei bügellosen Modellen von XS bis XL. Passend dazu kann zwischen einem Slip und einem trendigen Taillenslip gewählt werden. Neben Schwarz und Mineralweiß, unterstreicht die Kollektion durch zarte Farben, wie Lavender, Opal und Yellow Tender, die feminine Schönheit.

Sustainable fashion platform Manufy: Upgraded version with more functionalities

Manufy, a marketplace for sustainable fashion production, has launched a new version of their platform. The platform connects conscious brands with sustainable manufacturers in hopes to create a cleaner future for the clothing industry. Now decked out with many more functionalities, Manufy aims to facilitate sustainable business between both parties from start to finish.  

Over the course of the last year the Manufy team has been busy gathering feedback from its growing user base. The platform started out as a place where manufacturers and brands from Europe could connect and chat with each other, but the team found out both parties wanted more. “We constantly reached out to our users to listen to their needs. We’ve compiled all those ideas and implemented them in version two!” says Michiel Dicker, co-founder of Manufy.

Not only a full visual transformation, but many functionalities were added: “Users can now easily start a sampling process, organise projects from start to finish and get sustainability insights” Dicker says. “Manufy is becoming your one-stop-shop for all your sourcing needs!”

The start-up, which launched in december of 2020, has seen a sharp increase in user activity over the last year. With trade shows being canceled due to covid, lots of manufacturers and brands were looking for new ways to do business. Going digital was one of the logical steps.

The production requests being placed on the platform cover a wide range of garments. Hoodies and t-shirts are popular, but the Manufy team also sees lots of shoes, caps, bags, dresses, swimwear and lingerie requests coming in.

Another notable trend in the industry is the ever growing demand for sustainable clothing production. With reports on climate change coming out and more and more consumers asking for sustainable alternatives, brands are making an effort to source their products more responsibly. The fashion industry, being the second largest polluting industry, needs a sort of paradigm shift. “We should focus more on making lower quantity, higher quality products. Making it on demand would be best” says Dicker.

The right conditions
The start-up, which launched in december of 2020, has seen a sharp increase in production requests the last couple of months.

Manufy uses feedback from its users to keep improving the platform. Aside from finding new manufacturers to fill production requests the team has been working on a lot of new functionalities based on input from users. A new version of the platform will be released very soon. “With Manufy 2.0 it will become easier to organise your projects, place re-orders and have all your production details in one place. Manufy will be your one-stop-shop for all your sourcing needs!” says Dicker.

Iluna Group with sustainable Collection at Interfilière Paris

As the role of lingerie in fashion and athleisure continues to augment, the desire for garments that will meet a new set of values for contemporary consumer lifestyles will flourish. Iluna Group comes back to Interfilière Paris with an important goal: to relaunch the qualities and dimensions of sustainability.

Iluna’s new path begins with the investment in the renewal of machines, which allow it to fly higher in terms of high-tech developments, quality, definition, effects of yarns and patterns. The journey into the new dimension of responsible quality continues with ad hoc developments in the field of GRS (Global Recycled Standard) certified recycled yarns, aimed at unprecedented effects both in look, in performance and in the hands of fabrics. The cord yarn is a precious yarn with a ROICA™ EF premium stretch yarn core, GRS certified and developed with 50% of pre-consumer waste materials content - double, covered with an equally recycled shiny thread; the bright and translucent is instead to add brilliant effects so far not possible with a GRS yarn.
