Eloise uses recycled tissue and cardboard packaging where possible. The garments are

put into polythene garment bags as this seems like magic to prevent them from creasing.

What’s the difference between Hebridean and Organic?

The ethical tweeds are a mixture of organic and locally sourced wools from different small suppliers. They all use native breed sheep but maybe not organic or in transition. Farmers are paid a fair price for their wool and this sustains the breeds and the livelihood of the smallholders in the Highlands. The organic tweeds are from wool from organically certified

farms. Each step in the production process for organic (there are many) have been certified by the Soil Association and less chemicals are used in the processing and finishing. For example, machines have to be cleaned each time.

How do I care for my garment?

Tweed is dry clean only and it’s a good idea to hang on a hanger rather than a hook. You can spot clean with a damp cloth or if dry brush with a hard toothbrush and an awful lot will come off. The natural oils of the tweed mean that oils and much dirt doesn’t penetrate.

But, if you are worried about moths it’s then dry cleaning will kill any moths eggs that might have been laid. Some dry cleaners are more environmentally conscious than others, so do a little research. Johnsons seem to be making an effort.
