Ecoalf Amatista linen dress - cocoa

Linen, unlike cotton, can be grown with just rainwater in most cases, thereby significantly reducing its water footprint. It is also a plant that is resistant to infestations and diseases, thereby reducing the use of pesticides and fertilisers. It adapts well to poor soil and can be grown in soil that is unsuitable for other food crops. It is often grown in crop rotation, improving the health of the soil. It is biodegradable and compostable if it isn’t mixed with synthetic fibres. What’s more, the entire plant can be used. Linen garments are tough, increasing their lifecycle.
