The New Denim Project Gown

This multiwear, multisize gown, is made from recycled cotton fabric from The New Denim Project. The New Denim Project collects raw material derived from upcycled cotton and post-industrial textile waste, grounding scraps back into fiber, and spinning these once again into new yarns to weave and upcycle into a curated woven fabrics collection.
