How to newify your old clothing using 100% natural indigo

Buaisou - (Boo-i-saw)

The ‘Buaisou’ indigo dying studio is located in Brooklyn at the Morgan stop in Bushwick.  My first visit there was beyond expectation.  Since going and writing this post I’ve very quickly become a huge fan of natural indigo dying.  I was stoked to notice something of a re-birth happening right here in the US, but still so few people are aware of it and how awesome it is.

The inspiration today for denim comes from this artist!

Artist Heather Day (tumblr) - “The layers of paint, fibers and line reflect the relationship between decay and upkeep that relies heavily on human interaction. These paintings are never planned. Each piece is a product of an experience, leaving behind documentation of how an event transpired.”

This Plako zipper is (reportedly) the first design by Gideon Sundback, later the inventor of the zipper. BUT, the patent itself, Patent #788317, is attributed to his boss, the inventor of the first proto-zipper, Whitcomb Judson. It is from the Hookless company, but is pre-hookless. The Plako fastener, or, technically Plako XX, is stamped with a patent date of April 25, 1905. This fastener / zipper was introduced in 1909, before technological advancements superseded it.
