So there are hats, bags and other brilliantly woven stuff in this too, but we all know where all the attention lies and what steals the show. This is Brazil we are taking about. It is all about the magic of Samba on the sultry beaches with sexy hot curves clad in the best possible bikinis in the world (And by best, I might as well mean ‘Tiniest’) It is all about the music, the beaches, the bikinis and of course Football magic when you are in the land of the vivacious and the extraordinary. The Brazilian craftsmen are now taking their weaving skill global as showcased in this Creollus Collection!
This wonderful eco-fashion line is a fair trade enterprise that promotes artisan-made goods and recycled, homespun resourcefulness. Their super-cute bikini, tote, and beach pieces are hand-crocheted by two women artisans from southern Brazil. The founders of Creollus wanted to find a viable use for the banana plant fiber that is often discarded after fruit harvesting. They consequently found an innovative way to sustainably prepare and crochet this strong and biodegradable fiber into stylish cover-ups, bikinis, totes, and brimmed sun hats.
Launched in 2001, Creollus has created an impressive network of Brazilian handcrafters who aid in the protection of the environment when creating these one-of-a-kind garments. This is not just about using green material for your wardrobe but it is about using what are majorly discarded natural materials as they are considered useful for nothing. Just goes to show that every part of nature is useful to man if he makes proper use of what is given to him. The Creollus collection now gives you a moral obligation to flaunt your curves to keep the planet green and as I always say, send in your pics with this bikini on if you do put it on. Your contributions are always welcome!
