STELLA McCARTNEY

COLORIFIX DRESS

EST. 2018

Stella McCartney donated another one of her designs, an organic

cotton dress from the Summer 2018 collection, to the

Victoria and Albert Museum. This dress is now a collaboration

between Stella McCartney and Colorifix and became known

as the Colorifix Dress. This design was one of the first to be

sustainably dyed using Colorifix technique which combines

engineered microorganisms and DNA. By isolating the DNA

that creates colour in nature. The DNA is transferred into a

microorganism (a form of bacteria) and the microorganism is

then used to transfer the colour onto a fabric. As a result, Colorifix

use 10 times less water than traditional dyeing processes

and do not use heavy metals, organic solvents or acids.
