Ambercycle launches Tombogo x cycora collab at Paris Fashion Week

The collection marks the first-ever garments to grace the runway at Paris Fashion Week that incorporate circular polyester. The collaboration showcases the potential of innovative circular materials in meeting the artistic and technical demands of high-fashion creations, Ambercycle and Tombogo said in a joint press release.

By minimising raw material extraction from the earth, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and diverting materials away from landfills, cycora material provides designers worldwide with an environmentally responsible material option.

Research shows that approximately 80 per cent of a product’s environmental impact is determined during the design phase. The Tombogo x cycora collaboration showcases a new standard of how designers can seamlessly integrate circularity into their creative process, added the release.

“Partnering with Tommy to bring his vision to life is a really exciting opportunity for us. Forward-thinking designers are essential to our circular ecosystem, enabling us to lead the path towards a future where style and circularity seamlessly coexist,” said Shay Sethi, co-founder and CEO at Ambercycle.

“Using cycora fabric was a surprisingly seamless experience—lacking the complexities and constraints you sometimes associate with sustainable fabrics. As a designer who cares about fashion's impact on the world, I find it refreshing to work with a fabric that effortlessly fits into our design and production process, while also being better for the environment,” said designer Tommy Bogo.
