The Signature 'Sustainable' Blouse
Each blouse is made with 100% cupro, a cruelty-free alternative to traditional silk. As of January of 2019, all products made under the Hilary MacMillan label are done so with cruelty-free practises in place. No wool, silk, fur, exotic skins, leather or feathers are used in any of our clothing.
Cupro (our blouse material) is made from unused cotton linter by-product. It is a biodegradable fibre that can be decomposed by living bacteria. When buried in soil, the material will fully decompose in 4-5 months.
Fabric dye ingredients are extracted from scrap onion skins, rice, bamboo, grapes and various mixes of natural ingredients, which all derive from ‘off cut’ plant materials.
Cupro is a biodegradable material, and the company which makes our fabric, Asahi Kasei, achieved a 99.8% emissions rating in 2019. This is achieved, in part, by using fibre waste (coming from the making of cupro fabric) as subsequent fuel for power generation.
Our Signature ‘Sustainable’ Blouse supply chain is based around small batch manufacturing. We order what we can sell and exercise tight control over what we make. Small batch production allows us to build good relationships with ethical partners.
