Covet  The Covet collection is renowned for achieving fusion and balance between true fashion and the world in which we live.  This is accomplished by using natural fibers while remaining dedicated to the details and styling of a contemporary fashion collection.  Comfortable, distinctive and avant garde naturally!

Some of the natural fibers prevalent in the collection include: organic cotton yarns, soybean which enhances the comfort, luster, moisture-permeability, dry and drape properties of cotton and bamboo with its unusual ability to breathe and remain cool to the touch.  All of the fabrics and yarns used allow for reduced wasted resources.

The Benefits of Bamboo:

Bamboo clothing is an excellent organic choice and it has many benefits and advantages over cotton. Bamboo fabric is softer than cotton with a texture similar to silk. It is a naturally antibacterial and hypoallergenic product grown without the use of chemicals or pesticides. It is also quick to absorb moisture and can dry twice as fast as cotton clothes. Bamboo clothes can be worn all year round as they keep you cool in summer and warm in winter.

Enviornmental advantages of bamboo include:
Bamboo plants are very quick growers and do not require fertilsers or pesticides. They require very little water and they can survive drought conditions as well as flooding. Bamboo is a sustainable and renewable resource as the bamboo plant is self replenishing. New shoots are continuously growing, ready to replace the old ones. Bamboo releases a significant amount of oxygen into the atmosphere, more so than trees. Planting bamboo can help reduce the level of carbon dioxide in the air as well as reducing soil erosion and desertization. The complex root system of bamboo plants makes them an excellent choice for planting in high erosion areas such as riverbanks and areas subject to mud slides. They are also suitable for planting in areas which have suffered significant soil degradation and deforestation.

Bamboo fabric is created from bamboo pulp. The fabric is bleached without the use of chlorine. Bamboo fabric is easy to dye and is done so without the use of harsh chemicals and using methods which use less water than conventional dyeing methods.
