ENVIRONMENT: This cami is made with organic cotton fabric that is grown, harvested and processed without the use of harmful chemicals that could leech into our environment. In addition, this cami is naturally whitened with natural, sustainably harvested plants and herbs. Natural plant dyes are the most sustainable type of dye known. Not only do plant dyes not produce toxic run-off during the dyeing process, but plant dyes have a negative carbon footprint. Meaning that the plants used in plant dyeing remove more carbon from the atmosphere during their growth than is released during the dyeing process, helping to reverse the cause of global climate change.
