Conventional sequins are made of polyester film (Mylar) or vinyl (PVC), which cause particularly significant environmental and health risks \u2013 producing toxic, bio-accumulative chemicals, including carcinogens, such as phthalates and hormone disruptors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"BorlabsCookie _brlbs-cb-youtube\"><div class=\"_brlbs-content-blocker\"> <div class=\"_brlbs-embed _brlbs-video-youtube\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"_brlbs-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-content\/plugins\/borlabs-cookie\/assets\/images\/cb-no-thumbnail.png\" alt=\"YouTube\"> <div class=\"_brlbs-caption\"> <p>By loading the video, you agree to YouTube&#8217;s privacy policy.<br><a href=\"https:\/\/policies.google.com\/privacy?hl=en&amp;gl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Learn more<\/a><\/p> <p><a class=\"_brlbs-btn _brlbs-icon-play-white\" href=\"#\" data-borlabs-cookie-unblock role=\"button\">Load video<\/a><\/p> <p><label><input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"unblockAll\" value=\"1\" checked> <small>Always unblock YouTube<\/small><\/label><\/p> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div><div class=\"borlabs-hide\" data-borlabs-cookie-type=\"content-blocker\" data-borlabs-cookie-id=\"youtube\"><script type=\"text\/template\">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<\/script><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I am amazed by the iridescent beauty of our\u00a0BioSequin\u00ae\u00a0all-in-one \u2013 handcrafted in my London atelier from plant-derived, non-toxic sequins that are even more stunning than conventional options.

According to the United Nations, 70 million barrels of oil are used to make&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellamccartney.com\/us\/en\/sustainability\/recycled-nylon-polyester.html\">polyester and other synthetic fibres<\/a>&nbsp;annually.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A study by Oxfam showed that British women purchase 33 million sequinned garments every festive season \u2013 with 1.7 million ending up in landfill, after only five wears. This moves from waste stores to waterways, with 35% of microplastics released into the world\u2019s oceans coming from synthetic clothing (EEA).&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have proudly been a PVC-free brand since 2010. In our Stella vision, we hope to soon only use recycled, recyclable and biobased alternatives, creating a more conscious future of fashion.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Together with Radiant Matter, we proudly debuted the world\u2019s first garment crafted from BioSequins in the April 2023 cover story of American Vogue \u2013 photographed by the legendary Annie Leibovitz on\u00a0model, eco-activist and House friend Cara Delevingne.\u00a0 Our exclusive sleeveless jumpsuit was carefully handmade at our London atelier, a closely fitting&nbsp;all-in-one&nbsp;that experimentally showcases our innate [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":59,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"none","nova_meta_subtitle":"Stella McCartney Showcases World\u2019s First Garment Made of Plastic-Free Plant-Based Sequins","footnotes":""},"categories":[5572],"tags":[11270,6162,15461],"supplier":[21940,14842],"class_list":["post-124737","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bio-based","tag-biodegradability","tag-cellulose","tag-garment","supplier-radiant-matter","supplier-stella-mccartney"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/124737","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/59"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=124737"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/124737\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=124737"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=124737"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=124737"},{"taxonomy":"supplier","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/supplier?post=124737"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
