" The starting point is not Design. The starting point is Sustainability" - Stella McCartney
How to Achieve Great Brand Visibility
Photo from Stella McCartney's official Instagram

August 13th, 2019. American singer-songwriter Billie Eilish wore an eye-catchingoutfit at Glastonbury. It didn't go unnoticed to an audience of 40.000 fans, and to the many more who saw it online. The bespoke two-piece was designed by Stella McCartney and part of her 'All Together Now' collection available now in stores. The collection was inspired by the Beatles' 'Yellow Submarine' film. The designer saw in the film's uplifting and hopeful statement of unity, a message in much needed in today's world.
Pushing an Important Cause Through Influential Ambassadors
Billie Eilish, who is the August cover of Rolling Stone magazine and is nominated as ' Best New Artist of the Year', is but one of many celebrities the Stella McCartney brand regularly dresses. With great timing and relevance, the house has a history of dressing celebrities, musicians and athletes. This conscious strategy provides Stella McCartney with incredible brand visibility and impact. Yet more than making headlines for its impeccable collaborations, the label is often making headlines for more important and pressing issues.
Fashion as One of The Most Polluting and Wasteful Industries
Stella McCartney is long associated with advocating and taking real action towards sustainable and ethical fashion. No easy achievement within an industry known as one of the most polluting and wasteful in the world. An end of 2017 report by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, showed that 53 million tons of fibers are produced every year to make clothes and textiles and that every year 73 % of those fibers landfill or burn. Mass-consumption fast fashion as well as luxury fashion both contribute to this problem.
Ways towards Sustainable and Ethical Fashion
The consistent action Stella McCartney takes towards more sustainable and ethical fashion can be generally described in three ways. First, as the sustained focus in finding great partnerships to research and develop new and more sustainable materials. Second, in developing innovative processes that are less harsh exploitative of natural resources. Third, in connecting with experts, in collecting and analyzing data to overthrow established misconceptions.
New And More Sustainable Materials
Bioengineered spider silk, mushroom leader, recycled oceans plastic are some great examples of this focus on developing new materials. The same way, the label has long been using eco-conscious materials, non-toxic dyes, polyester recycled from plastic bottles and is on its track to replace nylon with econylon made from recycled fishing nets. These are no small innovations.

Stella's Skin-Free-Skin and Fur-Free-Fur
Widely spoken of, Stella MacCartney has developed skin-free-skin that is made of polyester and polyurethane, coated with vegetable oil, and fur-free-fur that is completely spun from organic fibers.

An interesting example is her Stan Smith shoe. Entirely made of vegan- leather, the shoe upper is completely synthetic, and all glues were replaced with animal-free alternatives. The Stella McCartney House continues to work with many start-ups in different areas, also to achieve success in breaking down materials so they can be re-used.

Processes That Are Less Exploitative of Natural Resources
Working hard on developing innovative processes that are less harsh exploitative of natural resources, Stella McCartney uses organic cotton that doesn't come from endangered forests, reducing the use of oil-based synthetics, and working only with suppliers that meet the brand's standards of quality and sustainability.
Fostering Knowledge and Learning From It
In the meantime, much of Stella McCartney's approach and her network has allowed the collection, analyzing and learning from data, which has helped overthrow established misconceptions and proven that things can be done differently.

Among those misconceptions is the idea that using leather would be justifiable for its durability and full use of the animal, so less waste thus more ecological than fake-leather. Except, leather in fashion is hardly ever sourced from leftovers from the meat industry and is sourced from animals specifically raised for it.
A Consistent Timeline of Commitment To Sustainable and Ethical Fashion
From its beginning in 2001, Stella McCartney has sworn never to use leather, skin, fur or feathers, and to rely completely on alternative materials. This goal was originally perceived by peers as unachievable within the luxury fashion industry. Today, Stella McCartney has an 18-year old track record of innovations that speaks for itself. This consistent timeline of the company's efforts and commitment to sustainable and ethical fashion can be read on its website.
Sustainability First and Commercial Success
Furthermore, mid-July 2019, Stella McCartney and giant luxury fashion conglomerate LVHM announced a partnership to further develop the Stella McCartney house. This partnership promises to keep faithful to Stella McCartney's long-lasting commitment to sustainable and ethical luxury fashion. This move happens just about a year after Stella McCartney gained full possession of the company in March 2018. The previous seventeen years, the label had been co-own by Kering - LVHM's competitor group.
Are Sustainability and Luxury Incompatible?
Today, many fashion brands in all spectrums seek to take steps towards sustainability and fail miserably, their efforts unveiled as pure greenwashing.

If early detractors saw the worlds of sustainability & ethic and luxury fashion as incompatible, Stella McCartney has proved it wrong. The house was a pioneer in re-thinking and adopting processes and creating innovative solutions towards sustainable and ethical luxury fashion. Founded in 2014, luxury couture label RDVK advocates for the same principles.

Luxury has traditionally been associated with desire, scarcity and beauty, and Stella McCartney has kept this ethos all along: " My job is to make desirable, luxurious, beautiful clothing and accessories women want to buy. My first decision is always based on, 'Can I do this in a more sustainable way without sacrificing design?' If I can, then there is no reason not to." - Stella McCartney

All decisions at Stella MacCartney are derived from having sustainability in mind first, and the company is seeing incredible commercial success as well. The long view has proven right. For the late adopters who have run out of excuses, what can be learned?

MILAN, Italy - Stella McCartney was one of the first designers in the fashion business to embrace a sustainable attitude in her business model - from the production to the final collections.

I design clothes that are meant to last. I believe in creating pieces that are not going to get burnt, that are not going to landfills and that are not going to damage the environment. For every piece in every collection, I am always asking what have we done to make this garment more sustainable and what else can we do. It is a constant effort to improve...

The company is always looking for new ways to be more sustainable as it feels responsible for the resources it uses and the impact its activities have on the planet. This sense of responsibility and forward thinking is present when they design their collections, when they manufacture the clothes and even when they open new stores.

All Stella McCartney stores, offices and studios in the UK are powered by wind energy and abroad, they use renewable energy to power their stores and offices not to mention that 45% of their operations are run on 100% renewable, green energy. Equally interesting, in Stella McCartney 's collections, they use as much organic cotton as possible and continue to do research to find new materials and new ecological processes.

Recycling is one of the key points of this company's philosophy. In 2012, 34.3 metric tons of waste was diverted from landfill and recycled or reused - they recycle all textiles that could be used. Moreover, all Stella McCartney locations have recycling systems.

And when it comes to get involved in green projects, Stella McCartney did not hesitate to take part on the Natural Resource Defense Council NRDC Clean by Design Programme, becoming the first company of luxury goods to contribute to such initiatives. Clean by Design, "focuses on improving process efficiency to reduce waste and emissions and protect the environment".

Textile manufacturing has a big environmental footprint, it pollutes around 200 tons of water per ton of fabric using many harmful chemicals, and consuming enormous amounts of energy for steam and hot water. This programme aims to reduce the use of water (about 25%) and energy (about 30%).

It's really the job of fashion designers now to turn things on their head in a different way, and not just try to turn a dress on its head every season. Try and ask questions about how you make that dress, where you make that dress, what materials you are using. I think that is far more interesting, actually. I think that the way to create sustainable fashion is to keep asking these questions while making sure to make desirable, luxurious, beautiful clothing and accessories that women want to buy.

Among the Stella McCartney eco-friendly products we can find a sustainable eyewear collection made from over 50% natural and renewable resources using raw materials from natural origins such as castor-oil seeds and citric acid; the biodegradable soles made from a bioplastic called APINAT, which will degrade when placed in mature compost and the beautiful lingerie line, which uses recycled metal for hardware and organic cotton for the gussets.

These are just a portion of all the activities and initiatives undertaken by Stella McCartney. Undoubtedly, this is a very good example for the fashion industry, which unfortunately doesn't always comply with such ethical practices. I hope that many other designers and established companies will follow her example in the years to come.

Stella McCartney has released an alphabet manifesto to map out the brand's future, ahead of its spring/summer 2021 show.

McCartney has long since led the way in driving sustainability in fashion, utilising this time in lockdown to reflect on the part her brand plays within the industry.

This content is imported from Instagram. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.

The A to Z sets out the label's new guidelines and principles and gives clarity on what the fashion house is working towards environmentally.

"During lockdown, I put into words what defines what we love, know and believe about fashion - an A to Z of Stella McCartney. It became a guiding alphabet to hold ourselves accountable for our values, what we do and where we want to go, while always producing the most desirable and sustainable fashion that can be cherished forever. In short, this manifesto reflects who we are, and who we hope to be," explains McCartney.

The alphabet will guide the spring/summer 2021 ready-to-wear collection in terms of materials and production and echoes McCartney's values of zero waste, circular fashion and upcycling fabrics.

Every letter has been interpreted by a global artist, from close friends such as Jeff Koons, Olafur Eliasson and William Eggleston to Stella's own mother, Linda McCartney.

Fashion labels Victoria Beckham, Stella McCartney, Tommy Hilfiger and Gucci are setting a higher bar when it comes to making luxury green.

Over the weekend, millions of protestors in 150 countries took to the streets to demand their leaders do more to fight climate change. In London and Milan, it was not business as usual, as top brands responded to the global calls for more sustainable business practices. Here are the top green launches from the London and Milan Fashion Weeks that are setting the standard for where luxury can take sustainability in 2020.
Gucci Promotes Green Fashion and Self-Expression
Alessandro Michele's latest show opened with a line of models being sent down a conveyor belt in clinical uniforms and beige strait jackets before giving way to the Gucci antidote to the lack of "self-expression" in fashion. His spring-summer 2020 collection featured 89 looks in a rainbow of materials and fabrics, from black chiffon to chainmail. The bright '70s-by-way-of-'90s-inspired emerald suits and deep purple dresses were accessorized with everything from riding crops to black vinyl chokers.

Gucci recently announced that its production, all the way down to its supply chain, would be carbon-neutral. It put its money where its mouth was in Milan, with the brand planting a tree for every guest of the show. The catwalk's set was made from 70 percent recycled or reused materials and will further be reused in the new line's campaign.
Victoria Beckham Elevates Green Beauty to New Heights
It seems like every day another green beauty brand is hitting the market. But with products still boasting ingredients that considered toxic in many countries (i.e. phenoxyethanol), it's not always easy to separate out the true clean lines from the pack.

Enter Victoria Beckham. If it's good enough for the queen of the smoky eye, it should be good enough for the rest of us. Beckham's new cruelty-free beauty line elevates clean beauty standards, featuring ingredients such as gemstone powder or sodium hyaluronate, and absolutely zero bad fillers.

Beckham debuted the line during her spring-summer 2020 London Fashion Week show. Makeup guru Pat McGrath was tasked with creating easy yet sophisticated looks on the models, featuring Victoria Beckham Beauty Smoky Eye Bricks in Royal and Tweed ($54) and Victoria Beckham Beauty Satin Kajal Liner in Bordeaux ($26) to accent the shape of the eyes. The impactful shades in cerulean blue and rust clay red complemented the delicate clothes, but the incredibly rich pigments also showed how far green beauty has come today. "The beauty look was created to complement the lightness, easiness and freedom of the collection. It's about dynamic women today, women in motion," said Beckham in a statement.

Victoria Beckham Beauty is exclusively available at VictoriaBeckhamBeauty.com and for a limited time at the brand's London store. The luxury line uses minimal plastic and 100 percent post-consumer waste secondary packaging, with orders shipped in reusable canvas pouches. The eye collection is available now, with categories for lip and skincare coming soon.
Luxury Vegan Shoes Hit Mainstream
Stella McCartney may be the innovator for luxury vegan "leather" goods, but as more and more high-end brands embrace cruelty-free shoe and accessories lines, she finally has good company. Trendsetters are no longer looking at leather as a measure of quality in an item, but rather at how the whole shoe was put together.

McCartney has created everything from designer Adidas shoes to the infamous Falabella bag in cruelty-free materials. This past week, she launched her latest collaboration with Hunter boots, making some of the chicest rain boots ever to hit the market. They are also the most sustainable rain boots available, made from a plant-based alternative to neoprene and natural rubber made without petrochemicals.

Tommy Hilfiger partnered with British racing legend Lewis Hamilton for an all-new Tommy x Lewis capsule line. The duo debuted the collection during Milan Fashion Week with an all-out bash featuring a performance by Pusha T. Hamilton, who has described his vegan diet as nothing short of life-changing, and made it a priority to create a cruelty-free line. All the footwear, including bold hiking boot styles with cleated striped soles and "LH" graphics, are 100 percent vegan, but could fool even the most diehard boot fan.

Additionally, Hilfiger and Hamilton made the collection as environmentally friendly as possible, with 70 percent composed of sustainable materials. T-shirts and polos are made from 100 percent organic cotton, and reversible metallic down jackets are made from Re:Down (regenerated and rejuvenated down).

It seems like every day another green beauty brand is hitting the market. But with products still boasting ingredients that considered toxic in many countries (i.e. phenoxyethanol), it’s not always easy to separate out the true clean lines from the pack.

Victoria Beckham has unveiled her long-awaited sustainable beauty line, with all items made with a "blend of nature and clean science".

So far, the range contains a series of eye products including glittery eyeshadows, block palettes and liners. The Victoria Beckham Beauty website says skincare and lip ranges are set to follow shortly.

Each of its products are packaged in pre-used and recycled and recyclable materials, all of which use minimal plastic. In fact, some of its packaging will dissolve quickly in water. "However, we believe we can do better," said the brand.

"We are actively engaging resources to incorporate even more post-consumer materials, ocean-bound plastic, and refillable packaging into production. We aren't perfect, but we are committed to partnering with industry leaders in science, technology and sustainability to set better, cleaner, and more ethical standards across beauty."
Find out more here.
The brand added it was 100% cruelty-free, never testing its products on animals, while eight of the 11 products unveiled in the first lineup are vegan-friendly. Victoria Beckham Beauty is aiming to make "the ethical, earth-friendly choice whenever possible" by putting sustainability "at the heart of modern luxury".

In addition to the 1300 products banned for use in cosmetics by the EU, VBB has prohibited the use of a further 30 ingredients with "questionable or inconclusive safety data" for use in its beauty line. These include formaldehyde, parabens and parrafin wax.

The range has been met with immediate acclaim, seeing a number of products sell out within hours of going on sale and leaving customers waiting until the end of the month for the next shipment.

After working her way through the runaways and Fashion Weeks, she has earned a position in the Luxury market. As an influential designer and UN Goodwill ambassador, her voice has real impact. Working with Livia Firth, she championed sustainable fashion in London Fashion Week last September. Her designs for the Green Carpet Challenge quickly sold out, filling out the pages of newspapers and magazines.

At LOEWE, we’re combining our long-standing knowledge of craft with new research and technologies to help lessen our impact on the planet. Every day, we explore new sustainable practices in everything from material sourcing to designing, manufacturing, packaging and the building and management of our sites and stores. We’re still at the beginning of a journey which gained momentum in 2019 with the launch of our first Eye/LOEWE/Nature collection, that works as a laboratory for more sustainable practices and that by end 2020, we hope will enable us to reduce our overall CO2 emissions by 25%.

# data[].attributes.body
We work with high quality, low impact materials that are sourced and produced with our planet in mind. Factors such as traceability of origin, fair conditions for farmers, animal welfare and the protection of biodiversity closely inform the way we approach and procure raw materials.



We source our leather from tanneries certified by Leather Working Group (LWG), an international organisation that evaluates the environmental compliance and performance of the leather industry. We’re testing a variety of other low impact materials, including recycled and upcycled fabrics, and are also using an increasing amount of organically grown cotton in the products we make, that uses non-toxic pesticides, improves soil quality and saves water.

10 photos, 10 initiatives to protect the environment by LVMH spanning more than 20 years. Loewe continues to forge even closer links with its partners to ensure sustainable supplies of its exceptional lambskin.

Spain has long been renowned for the quality of its lambskin. Lambs bred in the Cordero Entrefino region high in the Spanish Pyrenees produce incomparably soft and supple leather. To preserve this exceptional savoir-faire and at the same time minimize the environmental impact of producing these skins, Loewe works closely with its supply chain.

The Spanish house helps tanners enhance their environmental management, sharing best practices and carrying out audits and inspections. This approach revolves around respect for their irreplaceable know-how, the fruit of a proud tradition that fits seamlessly with continuous innovation in tanning processes. The noble, desirable and exquisitely unique lambskin materials that come out of these tanneries thus have a reduced environmental impact.

This series of photos shot by photographers from the VU agency celebrates 20 years of steadfast commitment to environmental responsibility by the LVMH Group. A new initiative will be featured every two weeks. The next article is on Bulgari's certification by the Responsible Jewellery Council.

Loewe began as a cooperative of leather artisans in the center of Madrid in 1846. German entrepreneur Enrique Loewe Rossenberg consolidated the workshop under his name in 1872, creating one of the world's original luxury houses.

As LOEWE evolved and expanded over the next century, a commitment to modernity emerged as a defining characteristic: In 1950's and 1960's, LOEWE's offices and stores in Spain became a beacon of progressive international design thanks to the radical architecture and interiors of Javier Carvajal. In the 70's and 80's, LOEWE's capabilities with leather ensured rapid internationalization, resulting in store openings in Tokyo, Hong Kong and London.

In 1970, artist Vicente Vela created the Anagram, the abstract symbol consisting of four interwined 'L's that has been stamped ever since on LOEWE's products as an emblem of material and technical excellence. LOEWE's first ready-to-wear collection was introduced in 1965, bringing fashion into the core of the brand, followed by the debut of the iconic, unlined Amazona bag in 1975. The house was acquired by leading luxury group LVMH in 1996.

The LOEWE Foundation was established as a private cultural foundation in 1988 by Enrique Loewe Lynch, a fourth-generation member of LOEWE's founding family. Today under the direction of his daughter Sheila Loewe, the Foundation's mission is to promote creativity, educational programs and to safeguard heritage in the fields of poetry, dance, photography, art and craft. The Foundation was awarded the Gold Medal for Merit in the Fine Arts, the highest honour granted by the Spanish government, in 2002.

The following is an abridged excerpt from Paris-based journalist Dana Thomas's "Fashionopolis: The Price of Fast Fashion and the Future of Clothes", which will be published by Apollo Books in the UK on 5 September.
In early 1997, Stella McCartney was approached by the owners of French luxury ready-to-wear brand Chloé in Paris to replace Karl Lagerfeld, who was stepping down as designer. She knew the house well: "My mum wore Chloé in the '70s, so I had that floating around the house," she told me at the time.

During her initial meeting with Chloé executives, McCartney put forth her key design requirements: no leather, no fur. Ever.

"You take or leave it," she said. "It's not an option."

She looked at me as she recalled the moment, her aquamarine eyes deadly serious. "Stella Steel", as she has been called, is without question a woman of conviction.

There was resistance, but in the end, they took it.

When the deal was signed and announced in April 1997, 25-year-old McCartney squealed excitedly to a reporter: "Wow! I got Karl Lagerfeld's job!" A lot of other fashion folks thought the same, albeit sceptically, and grumbled that she landed it because of who her father is rather than for her talent. Lagerfeld snipped in the press: "I think they should have taken a big name. They did - but in music, not fashion."

With her first show, dedicated to her then-ailing mother and held at Paris's Palais Garnier opera house in October the same year, McCartney disproved her doubters. Suzy Menkes, now editor, Vogue International, wrote in the International Herald Tribune: "Although she was following in the giant footprints of Karl Lagerfeld in Chloé's glory years, McCartney wisely sent out a simple, unpretentious show literally filled with little nothings: dresses as light as a scarf; wispy printed blouses with floaty flower-child sleeves; slithery negligee dresses ... It was a fine first effort."

Before long, McCartney was dressing style influencers such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Hudson, Nicole Kidman and Madonna, who wore a sexy pair of low-slung Chloé tuxedo pants with a sequin waistband in her "Ray of Light" video.

Defending faux leather

Chloé was commanding more retail space in department stores, and sales climbed.

"What Stella did was surprise everybody, by very, very quickly developing her own style," American Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour said. "We have so few women designers who are really important in the field of fashion, and it's great to have someone like Stella joining the ranks. She has made a lot of very young, very attractive girls want to buy those clothes."

But her no leather-no fur policy drew fire. Critics claimed that faux hides, many of which are petroleum-based, were more damaging to the earth than the real stuff. Bull, said McCartney.

" Livestock production is one of the major causes of... global warming, land degradation, air and water pollution and loss of biodiversity," she said, adding that more than fifty million animals are farmed and slaughtered each year just to make handbags and shoes. Conventional leather tanning employs heavy metals such as chromium, which results in waste that is toxic to humans.

"Tanneries are listed as top polluters on the Environmental Protection Agency's ' Superfund '" list, a US federal program to underwrite the clean-up of contaminated industrial sites, she added. Yet about 90 per cent of all leather is chrome tanned.

"Killing animals is the most destructive thing you can do in the fashion industry," she told me. "The tanneries, the chemicals, the deforestation, the use of landmass and grain and water, the cruelty - it's a nonstarter. The minute you're not killing an animal to make a shoe or a bag you are ahead of the game."

Infiltrating from within

McCartney quit Chloé in 2001 and launched her namesake label in London. The luxury conglomerate Gucci Group, which was later absorbed by Kering, held a 50 per cent stake; she held the other half. (In March 2019, she completed a buyback of the Kering half. And in July, LVMH acquired a minority stake in Stella McCartney.)

With the Gucci deal, she was swiftly accused of getting into bed with the enemy: the Italian brand, at its core, is a leather goods company. However, to her mind, she was "infiltrating from within". Not only was McCartney planning to hold fast to her conscious fashion ethic at her own brand; she wanted to sway the group's other brands, such as Yves Saint Laurent and Alexander McQueen, to take it up, too.

Her no-leather stance led to a great deal of head-scratching in the Gucci Group executive suite. After all, logo-heavy leather goods, such as handbags, wallets and key fobs, are the cash cow of the luxury industry: they are easy to sell, instantly convey status and boast retail markups of 20 to 25 times the production costs.

"It was like: 'How are we going to do this? Oh my God. We have to weigh the loss of leather sales,'" she remembered. "I was told: 'You're never going to have a healthy accessories business with non-leather.' I've proven that wrong."

Sustainable style

One of the advantages of being a female designer (and a celebrity one, at that) is you can serve as a walking advertisement for your work. With her natural beauty (she regularly will forgo makeup) and her de facto fame, which she takes coolly in her stride, McCartney is most effective in this regard.

On the day we met, she was wearing a white organic cotton twill shirt that set off her sweep of russet-blond hair and her freckles, khaki men's pants "from about five seasons ago" that hung on her body like a boyfriend's pyjama bottoms, and butterscotch faux leather sandals on her impeccably pedicured feet. "I'm a mash-up of seasons, menswear and women's wear," she said, laughing as she took in her outfit. It was all comfortably stylish and sustainable - true modern fashion.

She then showed me her handbag: a honey-hued miniature version of her best-selling Falabella. It was made of synthetic leather and lined with recycled fake suede. As I turned it over in my hands and ran my fingertips across the grain, she asked, "Really, does anyone know it's not leather?"

Not I, I thought.

Proving the business model

In 2006, McCartney's company turned a profit - five years after its inception and a year ahead of schedule. A "significant" portion of those sales was from accessories, a McCartney spokesman told me; one published report estimated that they make up one-third of her turnover. (McCartney doesn't reveal such numbers.)

Having proven that going skin-free is a viable business model, she decided to see what other environmentally noxious materials could be eliminated from her line. She hit upon one: polyvinyl chloride, known as PVC.

PVC is one of the most pervasive plastics today. Cling film, drinking straws, credit cards, toys, artificial Christmas trees, Scotch tape and plumbing pipes are all made of it. In fashion, it is used for transparent shoe heels, vinyl raincoats, synthetic patent leather, and the flexible tubing inside handbag handles. But it is a known carcinogen, and when it biodegrades, it releases poisons into the soil and water table. In 2010, McCartney banned all use of PVC at her company.

"Taking PVC out was a huge thing for us," she said. "I'd say: 'Let's do a clear heel! Let's do a Perspex trench!' PVC, PVC, PVC. 'Let's do sequins!' There are two sequins in the world without PVC. There are millions of gorgeous sequins, but they have PVC."

By 2016, all Kering brands had stopped using PVC. For McCartney, it was a big win.

Biyoloji bölümünden mezun olduktan sonra botanik üzerine yüksek lisans yapan Özge Horasan, bilgi birikimini farklı şekilde değerlendirmeyi amaçlamış ve sat-su-ma'yı kurmuş. Markanın merkez üssü, iki buçuk senedir Datça'da ziyarete açık bir atölye. Alametifarikası ise başta bitkiler olmak üzere doğal malzemelerle renklendirdiği tamamen doğal kumaşlar. Çevreye saygılı duruşuyla dikkat çeken markayı, kurucusu Özge Horasan'dan dinliyoruz.

Bize sat-su-ma'nın kuruluş hikayesinden bahseder misiniz?

sat-su-ma 2014 yılında, sabahları yataktan çıkmamı sağlayan nedenlerden birinin giyinmek olduğunu fark ettiğimde doğdu diyebilirim. Kendimi ifade etmenin yollarını araştırırken, modanın benim için önemli bir araç olduğunu anladım ve kendimi bu alanda geliştirmeye başladım. Daha önceleri kendi giysilerimi yaptığım olmuştu ama sat-su-ma ile birlikte hem malzeme konusunda hassasiyetle hareket etmeye, hem de başkaları için dikmeye başladım. İlk süreçte hem boyuyor hem de dikiyordum. Her şey tamamen benim elimden çıkıyordu. Üzerimdeki yükü azaltmak için bir süre sonra bu sistemi değiştirmem gerekti. Ama boyama kısmına devam ediyorum, o benim sanatım.

sat-su-ma kadını kimdir? Bize markanın vizyonunu anlatır mısınız?

Markayı kurarken bazı çıkış noktalarım vardı elbette; örneğin sadece doğal elyaf ve boyalar kullanmak, tüketim odaklı olmamak gibi... Ama aslında inandığım doğruların çizgisinde daha çok içgüdüsel ilerledim ve hâlâ da öyle ilerliyorum diyebilirim. Açıkçası moda konusunda teorik bir eğitim almadığım için bunu biraz avantaja çevirmek istedim. Belli formüller uygulamak yerine markanın organik bir şekilde kendini oluşturmasına izin verdim. Bu kimi zaman işimi inanılmaz zorlaştırıyor ama benim derdim sadece başarılı bir marka yaratmak değil. Bir markanın güçlü bir konsepti olması gerektiği kadar, insani yanının da korunması gerektiğini düşünüyorum. sat-su-ma bir otomat makinesi gibi para atıp ürün aldığınız mekanik bir olgu değil; hikayesi, iniş çıkışları, maceraları, heyecanları, mücadelesi, yapabildikleri ve yapamadıkları olan bir marka. Ve bence bununla ilişki kurabilen herkes sat-su-ma kadını.

Organik kumaşlar üzerine doğal boyama kullandığınız tasarımlarınızda, size ilham veren öğeler neler?

Temel ilham kaynağımın doğanın ta kendisi olduğunu söylemem pek şaşırtıcı olmaz herhalde. Renklerimi tamamen doğadan elde ediyorum. Yani aslında var olanın formatını değiştiriyorum. Bir nevi aracıyım sadece. Kullandığım renklerde genelde yine doğadan etkileniyorum. Gün batımında oluşan sıra dışı renk geçişleri; bir kaktüsün etkileyici, buğulu rengi; bir su birikintisinin ışıkla yaptığı oyunlar veya renk çeşitliliğiyle şaşırtan bir toprak yığını ilham kaynağım olabiliyor. Ve bunlara şahit olabilmek için bazen dünyanın öbür tarafına gitmem gerekiyor. Bir diğer ilham kaynağım ise malzemenin kendisi. Özel ürünler yaptığım için piyasadaki her malzemeyle çalışamıyorum. Ham olarak istediğim kalitede, istediğim sertifikalara sahip bir malzemeyi, ihtiyacım olan miktarda bulabilmem gerekiyor. Bu gibi kısıtlamalar beni tasarım anlamında yönlendiriyor. Örneğin, sadece belli bir çeşit keten kumaş bulabildiysem, tasarım çeşitliliğim de onunla yapabileceklerime indirgeniyor.

Koleksiyondaki parçalar, giyerken ona nasıl bir anlam yüklemek istediğinize göre değişebilme niteliğine sahip. Her zamana ve koşula uyum sağlayabilen tasarımlar sunduğumu düşünüyorum. Kullandığım malzemelerin nadirliği ve tekniklerin zorluğundan dolayı onlarla tezat oluşturacak, basit ve bazen absürt çizgiler kullanmaya çalışıyorum. Yalın parçaları detaylarla zenginleştiriyorum.

Sürdürülebilirlik markanız için ne ifade ediyor? Bu konuda sat-su-ma nasıl bir noktada? Gelecekte bu konuyla ilgili atacağınız yeni adımlar var mı?

Sürdürülebilirlik, bir şeyler üretmeye başladığımda ilk iş olarak oturup ciddi araştırmalar yaptığım, öğrendiğim bir konu. Yapacağım herhangi bir şeyin dünya kaynaklarını sömürmeye değmeyeceğini zaten düşünüyordum. O yüzden sürdürülebilirlik sat- su-ma'nın temelinde yer alan bir kavram. Bunun üretim pratiklerine nasıl yansıdığını ise şöyle özetleyebilirim: Tasarımlarımda, düğmesinden fermuarına, sadece doğal elyaf ve malzemeler kullanıyorum, böylece doğada çözünemeyecek hiçbir atık çıkarmıyorum. Pamuk en fazla pestisit kullanılan tarım ürünlerinden biri olduğu için organik sertifikalı olmayan pamuk kullanmıyorum. Renkleri sadece doğal yollardan elde ediyorum. Boyama esnasında su ve enerjiden tasarruf sağlayan bir doğal boyama yöntemi kullanıyorum. Küçük üreticilerle ortak çalışarak, küçük ölçekli üretimin devamını sağlıyorum. Gelecekte hem daha fazla yeni nesil sürdürülebilir malzemeyle çalışmak, hem de boyama aşamasında güneş enerjisi, yağmur suyu gibi kaynaklardan yararlanan kapalı bir sistem kurmak, hedeflerim arasında.

Pandemi sürecinde markanızla ilgili değiştirmeyi ya da oluşturmayı düşündüğünüz stratejiler geliştirdiniz mi?

sat-su-ma dijital platformlarda çok aktif bir marka değil. Pandemi süreciyse herkesi ve her şeyi dijitale sıkıştırmış durumda. Bu pek hoşuma gitmiyor açıkçası, çünkü markayla ilgili hayata geçirmeyi düşündüğüm sanatsal, performatif ve fiziksel insan ilişkisine dayanan fikirlerim vardı. Şimdilik onları askıya aldım ve yeni ürünlerin üretimlerini durdurdum. Şu an herhangi bir sezonu yakalama ihtiyacı ya da insanları yeni giysiler satın almaya ikna etme isteği duymuyorum. O yüzden marka bir nevi uykuda diyebiliriz. Ne zaman uyanacağını zaman gösterecek. Online olarak daha aktif hale getireceğim şeyse işin mutfağı olan sat-su-ma Studio. Doğal boyama malzemelerinin satışı iki yıldır sürüyordu, ancak şimdi buna bazı online dersler de eklenecek.

Karantinada kalmak motivasyonunuzu ve üretkenliğinizi nasıl etkiliyor?

Az insan teması ve kendi başına olmak benim için yeni bir şey değil, fakat bu küresel bir kriz. Bundan hem zihinsel hem de ruhsal olarak etkilenmemek mümkün değil. Her ne kadar hislerim günlük olarak değişse de, yine de rutinime devam edebiliyorum. Bir de kendimi bildim bileli hiçbir şey için acele edemedim. Zaten bu yüzden dünyanın hızına yetişemiyordum. Bu durma hâli sebebiyle de biraz rahatladım. Sanki kendi hızımda istediklerimi yapabileceğim bir boşluk yakalamışım gibi hissediyorum. Her gün stüdyoya geliyor, yeni renk reçeteleri üzerinde çalışıyor, yeni denemeler yapıyorum. Evimle stüdyom çok yakın olduğu için karantinadan pek etkilenmiyorum. O yüzden rutinime bağlı kalabiliyorum. Bu süreçte hem altı senedir yaptıklarımı düzene koymak, hem de beni heyecanlandıran yeni sanatsal denemeler yapmak istiyorum.
