Carry's project: Mending fashion's relationship with nature through plant fibres and dyes. Later this year, She will be heading out to Latin America (Peru, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico) to explore the plants that have been used to make and dye our clothes for centuries and ask whether the plant kingdom could hold the secret to fashion's sustainable future.

We wish her a successful project and we look forward to reading about her adventures and findings.
