Descrição do livro

A richly illustrated exploration of the materials that have clothed us throughout history, the ecological and cultural forces that have shaped what we wear, and the traditions and innovations helping to shape a more sustainable future for fashion.

National Geographic Explorers Dr. Tierney Thys and Carroll Dunham travel across continents and cultures to trace the extraordinary stories of plant and animal fibers, from ancient textiles to regenerative materials and pioneering biofabrication. Along the way, they introduce farmers, artisans, scientists, and designers who are leading the charge in sustainable fashion.

Part natural history, part cultural history, and part field guide, Fabric reveals the hidden ecological stories woven into our clothes. With immersive photography, humanizing portraits, and in-depth storytelling, it celebrates the ingenuity of people working with--and learning from--the natural world. Defiantly optimistic, Fabric imagines a post-petroleum future in which fashion can help restore ecosystems, revive cultural traditions, and transform the way we make, wear, and value our clothes.
