Eco-Friendly Fashion: Salmon Skin Bikini

| 0 comments

We have had so many eco-friendly fashion products. Be it the solar bra or this unique salmon-skin bikini, we should be really proud of such inventions. In her earnest efforts to make fashion a tool to help poor women overcome their economical conditions by working with naturally available materials to form luxury products, Chilean designer Claudia Escobar came up with the Salmon Skin Bikini. Salmon is a readily available fish which has been worked with for a long time. Scotland is specially famous for its abundance. Well, the designer has sure taken hint from nature and given shape to a wonderful concept. She put to use the salmon skin by mixing it with lycra. Her bikini can cost you a sum of £250 ($NZ630) and a pair of trousers will cost around £750. Well, there is obviously a catch here. Being the philanthropist she is, Claudia gives away half the money to the workers and there is almost no overhead. She never stops being modest about the whole concept. In her own words, Many people who lived near rivers and oceans have used fish throughout history. It’s not my original idea. It’s amazing, it’s a used product and you transform it into a product with added value. It really is amazing and we hope to see more eco-conscious fashion designers in the future. Way to go Claudia.
