Description A high-quality classic neck scarf that will stand the test of time! It comes in beautiful feminine, soft and flowing fabrics, each one unique, and each one speaks a different story – a boon for someone who appreciates modest flair! Fast fashion is one of the worst polluting industries in the world – in terms of unsustainable material resource inputs, inhumane labour practices, direct (factory) waste outputs as well as how fast the products are discarded in favour of new fads. It is a cycle that keeps driving demand, at the cost of the planet and human dignity. By sporting a scarf like this one, you are not only supporting small-batch slow fashion, you are also helping efforts to divert above-mentioned factory waste from landfill, using waste to create unique, beautiful and useful items, with a long expected lifetime. True classic style, if ever there was any! It can be washed by hand or in the machine. Do not bleach, iron or tumble dry. Note the colours and motives are random – if you want a specific look, leave a comment in the order notes and we’ll try to match it, but no promises. Made in SA: Proudly handmade in South Africa by the Upcycle team, in an effort to divert corporate waste from landfill and transform it into beautiful and useful products, thereby creating opportunities for local microentrepreneurs and self-starters. Size and other specifications: Adult ( - 80cm end-to-end) Being handmade from reclaimed waste, sizes, colours and motives may differ from pictures, as no two items are the same, every item is unique.
