It’s all about materials from Circ Lyocell’s big luxury debut to François-Henri Pinault honoring young innovators.
Climate neutral-certified designer Mara Hoffman has added another notch in her sustainable belt: unveiling her first gown using Circ’s Lyocell. The first capsule collection of 35 gowns dropped last week, and Hoffman has committed to incorporating the fiber, which is made up of 50 percent recycled poly-cotton waste, into her collections for the next three years.
Each year, an estimated 46 million tons of poly-cotton textile waste is landfilled or burned because existing recycling solutions cannot separate the synthetic polyester from the natural cotton and recover both materials, while virgin lyocell uses wood pulp from trees as its main component.

PhaBuilder took second place, with its synthetic biotechnology that creates new materials, including a bio-based nylon precursor called cadaverine that has applications in textiles and synthetic fibers. The Gucci, Saint Laurent and Balenciaga parent company chose them to “encourage Chinese start-ups to rethink the way we produce, use and extend the life-cycle of products and resources,” according to Kering’s chief sustainability officer Marie-Claire Daveu.
