Australian fashion brand Silk Laundry’s latest collection, ‘A View,’ merges conservation with material innovation.
Over the past century, traditional farming and logging destroyed more than 1,200 acres of farmland in rural Queensland. About 60 percent of the land was cleared entirely, with the remaining 40 percent exhibiting substantial thinning.
“In my case, design has always been deeply intertwined with nature,” the Canadian Australian designer said. “It is my inspiration and my motivation; I could not have one without the other.” The label’s latest collection “seems to have been years in the making,” Kolodinski said, with the catalyst being the aerial photography of J. Henry Fair, “an influential nature and conservation photographer whom I began following closely in 2020.”
“Fashion can be a means of communication; Silk Laundry’s garments and prints have become wearable and meaningful conversation starters,” Kolodinski said. “Through our collections, we can spark curiosity in the world. Our collections often celebrate the beauty of nature as well as what has been lost or is at risk if we don’t pay attention and make adjustments to our way of living.
