British luxe brand Tengri announces winners of Innovation Award

British fair-trade luxury knitwear brand Tengri has announced the winners of its inaugural Tengri Innovation Award, launched this year to encourage sustainable fashion and textiles working towards a more sustainable industry standard and future. The winner of the Tengri Innovation Award 2018 is designer Henrietta Johns, who explores natural animal fibres and innovative designs using traditional felting techniques to creating new fabric surfaces.

The three runners-up for the Tengri Innovation Award include: Christopher Ehrlich who was recognised for his conscientious approach to sustainability with ‘zero off-cut’ pattern cutting, reinventing a traditional tailoring technique used in the early 1900s; Cecile Tulkens for her ability to combine traditional and industrial techniques, incorporating an ancient form of crocheting originated in Belgium into her work and Zoe Atkinson, for her amour-like knitwear, combined natural materials such as leather skins, wood and soft woolen textures, to create an inventive outlook of future materiality.
