Loewe Launches Sustainable Fashion Line Using Orange Peels
Loewe is creating clothes using orange peels.
They're partnering with companies to transform discarded orange peels into a special fabric called Citrea.
These peels are cleaned, turned into fibers, and mixed with wood pulp, making a sustainable yarn.
This initiative, part of the Paula’s Ibiza 2025 collection, gives orange peels a new life and makes fashion more sustainable.
The process echoes how Tencel is made and keeps the environment in mind.
Loewe's Paula’s Ibiza 2025 collection features clothing made from orange peels.
The fabric, called Citrea, is created in collaboration with Pyratex and Orange Fiber.
Orange peels are transformed into cellulose fibers, then combined with wood pulp.
This process results in a sustainable yarn called Tencel Limited Edition x Orange Fiber.
The initiative aims to blend fashion with sustainability using citrus agricultural waste.
