Organic Cotton

It is always hard trying to explain to other people what it is I do at work - and what is so cool about working for Katharine Hamnett. Well my 5 year old nephew got it really easy when I explained it to him as being healthy for the earth - he didn't accuse me of a being a lezza hippy. I am by no means a hippy. Though I have been called Earth Mother before by Lu weed... but I think that was more to do with a weird outfit I had on... anyway - so this was made in the studio recently:



This YouTube video pretty much explains what organic cotton is all about. Katharine only uses organic fibres producing her garments and in particular cotton.

There is also this great short movie by the Environment Justice Foundation about where cotton comes from.

I was working on some packaging for organic cotton socks recently.

Well at least someone reads my blog. :)
Which company is responsible for making those?

They're going to be sold in TK Maxx I think. Can't remember the company's name, I only worked on the visual research rather than the design...
