As European market is in the thick of demanding sustainability in fashion, COCCCON, a brand working with silk producers ensure their products make use of peace silk in the production.

Silk has been esteemed as the finest material for clothing for over thousands years and customers are acquainted with the fact that silk comes from the silkworm or silk moth. It takes a huge number of caterpillars spinning their cocoons to produce one meter of silk yarn for silk is the material of the threads that the silkworm produces in order to pupate in them and transform itself into a butterfly.
