Held from July 20-21, this edition of Kingpins New York focused on circularity. It showcased collections of various noted companies including Artistic Milliner who presented its latest collection Recircular at the trade fair. The collection is made from ultra-premium blend of fibers that are sustainably produced.
Bossa’s showcased new GRS certified recycled linen blended item called Hague Savetrue. The garment offers the authentic look of comfort stretch denim and boasts 92 percent water savings compared to traditional dyeing methods.
Cone Denim displayed its Nothing Goes to Waste fabric collection that includes Black Jack and Barstow—two fabrics that according to Pierette Scavuzzo, Design Director, Cone Denim, best represents the mill’s approach to circularity.
Barstow showcased 100 percent GRS certified recycled fibers, a blend of pre-consumer recycled cotton and post-consumer recycled polyester. Artistic Fabric Mills’ (AFM) presented fabrics containing 50-100 per cent PIW cotton, produced by its own internal industrial waste according to Textile Exchange guidelines, are among the mill’s most circular offerings.
