The future of fashion? Fungi. Balenciaga launches its coat made from EPHEA, an alternative to leather that comes from the vegetative body of mushrooms.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Presented for the first time during Balenciaga FW22<\/strong><\/a> fashion show, the Maxi Hooded Wrap Coat is made from EPHEA(@ephea_mycelium<\/a>)<\/strong>, an innovative material made from mycelium<\/em>, the root-like structure of fungi. This is the first time this particular plant substance has been applied to a garment from the maison<\/em>.<\/p>\n

We have seen this type of material before in garments by Stella McCartney or even\u00a0Herm\u00e9s<\/strong><\/a>, but this is the first time that EPHEA, as a patented material, offers such an important artisanal alternative in terms of tailoring.<\/p>\n

EPHEA thus presents itself with this piece as a real alternative to animal and synthetic leather that we need to keep a close eye on. The material uses minimal resources to produce and emits small amounts of CO2, thus reducing the ecological footprint without compromising on quality.<\/p>\n

Balenciaga marks a milestone with this newly developed exclusive material, demonstrating that this alternative to leather is completely suitable for use in the creation of high-end fashion products.<\/p>\n

The coat is available only in selected Balenciaga boutiques in Beijing, Beverly Hills, London, Milan, New York, Paris, Shanghai, Tokyo and Toronto.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
