  • Sustainable fashion Thursday: Bello & Eco

    In the fair trade week in Utrecht, I found Bello & Eco

    Their philosophy  is based on promoting goods that are beautiful and durable.

    I got my eyes in this elegant, yet casual hat, the fashionable addition to my sustainable-conscious style.

    The hat is made from Toquilla straw ( Carloduvica Palmata), a natural fiber known for its reusable properties. The artisans from northern Peru use the fiber to handcraft beautiful accessories while working in good conditions for a fair wage.

    Carmen, Bello & Eco owner, sent the hat via the post with a lovely surprise, a mini-bag made with the same fiber. It is flexible, neatly  finished  and promises durability.

    Design affair by Claudia Falcão – 2010 – 2016

    To some of you, my passion for design is not new. Finally, you can see the progress of my project since the twenty cushion covers in 2010.

    I am passionate about creating handmade jewelry. I use haberdashery like buttons, zippers, and ribbons. I also incorporate re-purposed fabrics and vintage embellishments. The denim trend is timeless.

    These pieces of jewelry were made using the leftover fabric from alterations made to my new jeans. (2016)
