Fun Eco-Friendly Vintage Bloomers from Clare Bare
The Öko Box is an informative online store dedicated to designers focused on creating garments that do not contribute to the destruction of the environment. Leslie, the site’s owner, compiled the collections out of her “unified love of nature, health, and the human animal”. Everyone can do their small part to eradicate allergies from invasive products thereby creating healthier people and a healthier planet.
One of the designers whose work is showcased is Clare Bare from Brooklyn, New York. Creating pretty little bloomers from vintage fabrics, bygone trimmings, and organic cotton, Clare produces limited edition pieces. Believing that one’s body is beautiful, she does not make her lingerie to cover weaknesses. Further, she feels that flaws do not exist unless attention is brought to them by way of making something to “fix the problem”. Thus, any body shape can wear Clare Bare bloomers, bras and tank tops.
You really must see this small collection. Not only is it pretty, fun and comfortable, but the materials used to create the vintage lingerie are creativity at its finest. For example, the Paper Bag Waist Bloomers are made from a vintage curtain. Now that is artistic!
