HOPEFULNESS Full of hope or agreeable expectation, happily expectant:
Hillary Taymour of Collina Strada vowed to increase her commitment to sustainable design during the presentation of her autumn/winter 2019 collection, which included fashions made of 75 percent deadstock, or surplus, fabric. Taymour has since pioneered the use of repurposed materials and fabrics engineered to decrease production waste in the fashion industry. This bodysuit is part of a series of garments from the collection made of yellow deadstock lace printed with daisies. References to nature and farming in her work promote a way of life dedicated to reversing the effects of climate change.
