The DURGA Upcycled Floral Coat: Unique, Sustainable, and Original
Step into a world where vintage charm meets contemporary artistry with the DURGA Upcycled Floral Coat. This coat, originally purchased from vintage shop Humana, has been transformed into a one-of-a-kind masterpiece by the artist Dorit.
Key Features:
Hand-Knitted Floral Embellishments: Crafted using vintage wool from Humana, each flower on the coat's arms is meticulously hand-knitted and sewn, adding vibrant textures and rich colors.
Faux Fur Lotus Flower: The back features a faux fur lotus flower, made from leftover materials, adding a luxurious and creative touch.
Sustainable Fashion: By repurposing a pre-loved garment, this coat reduces waste and supports eco-friendly practices. Only 1% of all current fashion industry clothing is upcycled. By purchasing the DURGA coat, you are contributing to this exclusive 1%.
Challenges of Textile Recycling: Recycling existing garments into new fabrics is nearly impossible due to the complexity of mixed materials. When fabrics are blended, even a single polyester thread in a cotton shirt can prevent recycling. This process requires significant resources and often produces additional waste.
Unique and Original: This coat is completely original and one of a kind. As the DURGA slogan proudly states, "You are not a copy, you are original." Owning this coat means you are less likely to discard it, reducing the cycle of textile waste.
This exceptional coat is right now exclusively available at Kokopelli Art Gallery in Warmoesstraat, Amsterdam and not available online.
