Nicole Recomendes, the owner and designer of Allison Cole Jewelry, is launching a new eco-friendly clothing brand this spring.
SeaBird Clothing is a recycled sweater line inspired by Recomendes’ love of New England.
Each sweater is manufactured using 50% recycled materials from textile remnants.
“In creating my own clothing line, it was important to me to limit the environmental impact of the product that I am bringing into the world. Using recycled yarn was one way that I could do that while still creating a high-quality garment,” she says.
According to Recomendes, today's customer is growing increasingly conscious of where their clothing is coming from. "Knowing that a product they love is eco-conscious or sustainably sourced will impact their decision to purchase and can be a great selling point for the retailer.”
Designs, featuring a variety of New England themes, from anchors, nautical flags and lobsters will soon be available at www.seabirdclothing.com.
