Benny Design Non-Toxic Clothing, Environmental Protection Fashion, Popular In Australia

< p > this month to February, during this full holiday season, I believe you will buy new clothes for yourself and take part in different activities.

Behind gorgeous, have you ever thought about the close relationship between clothes and environment? It is an indisputable fact that producing fashions pollute the environment. Fortunately, in Hongkong, there is a local a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp" designer, /a.

< p > environmental protection is a concept of value. < a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp" > Benny < /a > think that when environmental protection is always in existence, it will be reflected from the personal necessities of life.

< /p >

< p > when you have visited designer Benny Yuen in the a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp", "environmental protection fashion shop" /a, we will be deeply impressed.

There are no air-conditioners in the shop, and 90% of the equipment is refitted from the second-hand materials that others throw away. For example, the predecessor of the hanger is the old tea table, and the shoe rack is made up of the ladder of the double bed and the trunk of others. Even the signs of the shop are all built up by abandoning the ship's board with one hand and one foot, so the fashion shop decoration is unique.

< p > this is Logo designed by Benny for personal brand EARTH.er. It is built with abandoned ship plates.

< p > Benny after graduating from high school, he studied art and graphic design courses, and then engaged in fashion design related work. Two years later, he quit his job and spent all his time in fashion design. Shortly after graduation, he founded his own brand, P.

From his background, you may guess that he is a fanatic of fashion design, but he admits that at the beginning, he did not like fashion design.

Fashion design is a consumer oriented industry, but the process of producing fashion brings serious pollution. As far as I know, 2/3 of China's rivers have problems, most of which are "a href=" http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp "fashion pollution" /a, which is why I don't like fashion design.

The essence of design is to improve life. If this thing (Fashion Design) will destroy the environment of human life, can it be called design? "/p".

When p went back to the art course, he was inspired by the teacher at the time and asked him to reflect on the proper role and social responsibility of the artist. "Benny"

Today's < a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp > Fashion Design < /a > can not improve life, but also destroy the environment.

My role is to start with fashion and change the existing environmental problems facing mankind and the world through fashion.

All along, most people think that designers or artists will only hide themselves to work. In fact, many designers are concerned about the world, and even use action to change the future.

< p > slow production of fine goods, < a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp" > non-toxic production dress < /a >, from the northern Thai family workshop operation, from design, dyeing to production, at least take 2 to 3 months.

{page_break} < /p >

In order to integrate environmental protection into his own design, P went far north to find natural cloth.

"Initially looking for some traditional handicrafts, it was natural to start with Thailand, and then asked the local shop to sell cloth, whether there was any natural cloth or no pollution bleaching and dyeing coloured cloth sold, only to know that there was no such cloth in southern Thailand, only in northern Thailand."

In the end, he spent 10 hours in traffic hours, and came from the south to the north to find the villagers who knew the traditional natural bleaching and dyeing technology.

< /p >

< p > < < a href= > http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp > > plant dyestuff < /a > is a technology commonly used in traditional costumes of Thailand. Before people used Mulan (blue) for dyeing and finishing, most of the traditional folk costumes were blue and later appeared several colors.

"I told the local villagers that they wanted to find these plant dyes to design the costumes, and they helped me to test them slowly. The result was very good."

< /p >

< p > Benny indicates that natural bleaching and dyeing technology uses the plant seeds, leaves, trees and insect secretions to dye the yarns, and then weaves them into cloth by hand looms, which has many advantages.

First of all, we should understand that the clothes made of chemical dyestuffs contain many harmful substances that may affect the human body. These effects are not one forty-five.

Vegetable dyes do not have this problem, and pollution to nature is very low.

< /p >

< p > < strong > ideal is not /strong < /p >

< p > Benny frankly, the clothes made from bleaching and dyeing of plants are relatively fast fading, and only good maintenance (if not drying) can prolong life.

From another perspective, faded clothes are also a style that can delight in having a unique object.

< /p >

< p > although the contribution of plant dyestuffs to the environment is beyond doubt, it has not yet been adopted by many designers.

"There are certain restrictions on the application of vegetable dyes on waterproofing cloth or to achieve specified colors (e.g. red and black).

The color of plant dyes is not stable enough. This involves the pH value of plant soil, and the color that is also stained in rainy season and dry season, which makes many designers feel annoyed.

And I want to take it easy because I want to insist on making vegetable dyes. Can plant bleaching and dyeing solve all environmental problems? I think at least the pollution can be reduced a lot. "

< p > store the sentences of love, hoping that the guests will reflect on it: make good use of resources, the earth is good, human life is better.

< /p >

Some people have done statistics before the < p >. There are about 60 species of plants that can be used for clothes dyeing and dyeing in Hongkong. But for various reasons and technical limitations, there are few people who make vegetable dyes.

Another important reason is that it is not in line with commercial considerations.

"To tell you the truth, the cost of the clothes I make now is increased by 50%, assuming that I used $100 to make a dress, and now I want to use $150.

Besides, when we were studying, we were taught that we should set prices for goods, which should be 4 times the cost, but I only do 1 times the cost.

He was happy to be a designer of the environment, so he didn't count on it.

If the goods are priced too high, only a few people can buy them or enjoy them.

He feels that plant bleaching and dyeing clothing is a good thing and should be recognized and adopted by more people.

< p > natural shells from Tai O, plus all hand painted and made ornaments, is one of the hot shops in the shop, and the designer is Benny's girlfriend.

< /p >

< p > he is also a non commercialized decision to open a shop at "a href=" http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp "Da o /a".

"People who come to Tai O are usually very relaxed and have a conservative attitude towards consumption. If they are in the urban area, they will get a better price, but I like the working environment here, and I like to get closer to their guests."

Benny's insistence on environmental protection was appreciated by others. He was invited by the mall to open a shop in Tongluowan at a much cheaper price. He agreed that he wanted to know more about green fashion.

< p > using disposable seat belts to make handbags straps is thoroughly processed and cleaned, which costs more than buying new accessories.

< /p >

< p > for the name of environment-friendly designer, Benny has its own view: "some people stick to some wood to make a piece of art, sell it at a high price, and some people cut out their old clothes to make new fashions. In my eyes, this is not an environmental design.

In the first place, there is no change in the production process of the object, in other words, the pollution problem has always existed. Secondly, in the manufacturing process (such as clothing tailoring and sewing), a lot of resources are spent to make a new garment. Although the selling price of the object is increased, it can not be seen that the object is promoted by the upgrading itself. If the clothes are sent to the poor mountainous area, the locals may wear a long time, and the real environmental protection is to prolong the life of the object.

He stressed that the ideal environmental design is the improvement of the practicality of the object itself, but not only on the price side.
