NEVER-LEATHER LAND

NEVER-LEATHER LAND

Minttu Melasalmi's graduate collection Never-Leather Land explores the potential of cork fabric in fashion design and as an alternative material to animal leather. The collection highlights the challenges of the leather industry and reminds us of the need for more sustainable materials and transparency in fashion.

Cork fabric is made of the cork oak's bark and is a natural, sustainable and versatile
material. It is soft, durable and water resistant and produced responsibly in an non-polluting production process.
