Founders Kaile Teramoto and Stacy Huynh have recently debuted an environmental initiative based in Los Angeles called Westside Compost. With the aim to promote the values of re-soiling to help close the food waste cycle, the brand has unveiled a selection of products to further spread awareness of the issue.
According to a press release, re-soiling is “a plan of action that replants nutritional soil in areas of our earth.” Through the process of composting organic food materials, we as a community can help “naturally break down food waste into soil and deposit into our own yards, potted plants and parks.”
As part of its launch, Teramoto and Huynh have dropped two graphic tees featuring a logo designed by artist T-rexglobal. Crafted out of deadstock fabric, the garments are available for both men and women. In addition, the label is set to release an informational book for you to log and track your composting process, as well as small metal composting buckets for you to put in the kitchen.
Westside Compost’s T-shirts retail for $70 USD each and are now available to shop for online. Stay tuned while we wait for the official drop date of the other items.
Copenhagen-based brand ROTATE Birger Christensen has tapped into loungewear for the first time since its launch in 2018. Dubbed “Sunday,” the collection features an array of cozy styles ranging from hoodies to sweatpants.
As part of its sustainability efforts, ROTATE has crafted each piece from either 100 percent recycled materials or certified organic cotton. In addition, the recycled polyester used for the leggings and tank tops, is sourced from recovered post-consumer PET plastic bottles.
The 26-piece line boasts five main colorways such as pink, red, olive green, turquoise and black. To get into the Sunday mood, the label has designed relaxed silhouettes including hoodies, tracksuits, tees and more. The range also boasts a new college font logo, which can be found embroidered on the caps, sweatshirts and T-shirts.
Priced from €50 to €130 EUR (approximately $60 to $160 USD), the first “Sunday” drop is now available via ROTATE Birger Christensen’s web store, as well as select retailers like Mytheresa and Net-a-Porter. You can expect the second release to launch next spring.
Following up on its cashmere sets for the fall season, Frankies Bikinis has now unveiled a collection of cozy essentials for the colder days. The versatile items can be worn both in and outdoors for various occasions, depending on how they’re styled.
Kicking off the range is Burl, a loose-fitted pair of shorts arriving in minimal black and white. The piece comes with the Aiden hoodie and Bennie crewneck, which all sport Frankies Bikinis branding with subtle embroidery details. For extra warmth, you can opt for the Frank sweatpants that follow the same theme. The collection also features a body-hugging halter neck dress and tank top made with a soft ribbed knit material.
Scroll through the gallery above for the full lineup. Frankies Bikinis’ Basics collection drops online at 9 a.m. PST (12 p.m. EST) on December 15.
