Vlas Blomme launched in 2006, aiming to create comfortable yet stylish clothing with high-quality European linen. Although creating 100% linen clothing with a soft touch to the skin was challenging at the time, Vlas Blomme accomplished it with Japanese craftsmanship, and now the brand is known worldwide.

The linen they use is mainly from Kortrijk, Belgium where farmers don’t use much pesticides to grow flax thanks to the climate. Farmers there also utilize whole flax as other materials to minimize waste. Moreover, Vlas Blomme developed upcycle fabric named “&12 Linen” with Kortrijk linen and organic cotton waste, which is smooth and durable. In addition to basic pieces such as dresses, shirts and pants, the 2023 SS collection expresses a unique genderless design and transcendent style for all.

Upcycled linen by circular fashion brand UpcycleLino

UpcycleLino, as the name implies, was founded to become a role model of circular fashion by turning textile waste into stylish clothing. The company that launched this brand also operates other apparel brands called CONFECT and Nest Robe which represents a linen garment brand in Japan. UpcycleLino repurposes the fabric scraps generated during the production of garments for these two brands and transforms them into new products.

The new items released this summer are striped T-shirts and pants which are made with linen and cotton wastes. The unisex items offer a comfortable fit for anyone. Such simple and basic clothing is essential for your wardrobe!
