About V Vissi Modekollektion

V Vissi er en bæredygtig modekollektion præsenteret i tre serier. Den første serie, Hangers, genanvender overskydende stofprøver fra fabrikkers prøvebøger til at skabe en unisex-blazer. Den anden serie, Shade of Green, opcykler udviklingsprøver og prototyper fra beklædningsproducenter, og flere af stykkerne kan bæres på to eller tre måder. Den tredje serie, Fabric Story, bruger certificerede og højkvalitets stoffer fra Japan og Italien. Trykningen er digital og anvender bionedbrydeligt blæk. Beklædningsgenstandene fremstilles på bestilling for at begrænse spild af lager og for at understøtte et cirkulært modesystem.
