Fashion Tidbit:
Natural materials for the straw handbag and basket bag industries use native fibers such as abaca, raffia, lupis, tikog, bancuan, pandan and sea grass.
“A handbag defines a woman's style and personality.
And her attention to details is what sets her apart from all the others...”
Another Fashion Tidbit:Jute is a natural fiber, made from the bark of a tree also known as jute. The long, soft, shiny fibers stripped away by hand after netting the bark of the tree. A textile loom weaves the fibers into coarse, strong threads. Next to cotton, jute is the cheapest and most important of all textile fibers. It is 100% biodegradable making it an eco-friendly fashion alternative. Jute is also a material for making hand loomed fabric used to produce tote bags and straw handbags.
