What are the Advantages of Wood in Fashion?
More and more fashion accessories today are made from wood. And for good reason: this noble material makes it possible to make original creations, but also to meet an increasingly pressing need of consumers. That of preserving the environment through a more ethical mode of consumption. So what are the advantages of wood in the fashion world?
FASHION AND TRENDS: ORIGINAL WOODEN CREATIONS
Have you ever seen a man wearing a wooden bow tie , or a wooden watch ? Can't you find these original little accessories? Indeed, the world of fashion is reinventing itself every day, and always. Designers are constantly on the lookout for new materials for their collections of clothing, bags, accessories, branded watches etc. The same goes for jewelers and props. And wood now allows them to create new things that really captivate consumers!
THE WOODEN WATCH, THE EXAMPLE OF THE ORIGINAL ACCESSORY
The Women's or Men's Wooden Watch and the bow tie are perfect examples of classic accessories revisited through a "new" material. Because if these products seem innovative to us, wood is a resource that we have always had. However, it has only been a few years since wood has seduced designers! These seem to have been brought up to date, or rather, “natural time”. And a large number of original products have seen the light of day thanks to this material. This is the bottom of wooden watches, glasses, accessories of all kinds, wooden bow ties… Who would have thought that wood would be used to create the latest trends in fashion?
WOOD, AN ECOLOGICAL AND ECO-RESPONSIBLE MATERIAL
Consumers are looking for environmentally friendly materials and are now turning to a healthier way of consumption for our planet. By offering them fashionable wooden accessories, we support them in this decision to consume “better” on a daily basis. And in their proactive approaches towards the environment and the preservation of the planet's resources! The entire fashion world seems to be moving in this direction. One after another, creators abandoned the use of animal furs. New textiles that are greener and healthier for the environment are now available to consumers. Animal leather (a source of pollution and suffering for animals) is gradually being replaced by leather of vegetable origin, such as pineapple leather, for example.
USE A NOBLE MATERIAL EVERY DAY
We cannot repeat it enough: wood is a noble material. There are different kinds, which we call "essences" and which allow total freedom of creation. A noble material is a pure material. Wood is one that we have abandoned for many years in favor of other materials. And yet, it is one of the oldest and most durable materials we know of. As is natural, it makes it possible to limit the use of our planet's resources to manufacture new objects. In addition, during its development, wood absorbs carbon and releases oxygen. Thanks to the wood industry, we can sustainably manage forests to allow them to maintain a maximum level of CO2 absorption.
