We loved discovering the Vienna-based fashion label Hilda.Henri at Playtime last weekend. The collection is made entirely out of boiled wool, the Alpine farming fabric we know so well from the traditional Austrian Alpine costumes. Designer Verena Wondrak has successfully shaken off the dusty image of boiled wool and created a fashionable and dreamy line of sustainable children’s clothing. We especially liked the pieces with the muted colours in combination with colourful details and funky cuts. All the boiled wool is locally made in Austria and processed from the highest quality pure new wool, without chemical additives. The collection is also manufactured regionally, following the century old rules of a traditional handcraft tradition.
