However, there’s no denying that fashion products are becoming a pollution problem. So, I am trying to change my fashion consumerism. Apart from not going crazy with the amount of clothing I buy, I have started paying attention to fabrics! Rayon is one of them.
Eventually, in the 1880s, French scientist and industrialist Hilaire de Chardonnet made a breakthrough when he produced the earliest form of rayon known as ''Chardonnet silk.''
As one of the most popular textiles, you may have heard of rayon and probably even used it in one of your sewing projects. But, have you ever wondered if it’s a natural fiber like cotton or if it’s truly a sustainable material like some manufacturers claim it to be?
