Helena Elston Studio is a material research based brand investigating the interconnection of waste, ecology and fashion. Her ongoing project, f.i (fungal-integrated), explores the up-cycling of textile waste combined with mycelial growth. F.i is a series of wearable and sustainable designs made from local London waste products like discarded textiles, garments and coffee sacks, which are manipulated through a unique mycelium process. The mycelial grown pieces range from complete garment decomposition, appliqué on waste garments, and seaming alternatives for thread. These designs are a reflection of innovative ways in which we can safely decompose textiles and discover fast fashion alternatives.
