Justine Leconte officiel Hello from Mumbai, Justine. It's been 2 months now since I'm hooked to your channel and every video gets ever more interesting. I was never into fashion consumption because of the sheer madness that surrounds it so to say, but your presentations are so informative and engaging that I await every new video. If I may add to this topic on fabrics, in India, a new fabric named Liva has been introduced as a natural fabric. I am yet to look into how it's produced. I do own a piece made of Liva and must say, it's super soft, breathable and the skin loves it. In some ways its flowy, yet manages to keep shape. Thought it might interest you. Sending you lots of love and blessings. Needless to say, you are doing very good work. Keep enjoying! Quite liked your 1st collection. Looks chic and super comfortable. Hope to own a piece soon. Cheers!

Hi :) Do you know of any good alternatives to nylon (tights)? I do love to wear black tights, but they don't last very long, so I would love to find a more sustainable option (maybe even with a breathability). But I would like it to have a similar look to it. Have a good rest-week, too ;-)

Awesome video! I love your channel's scope and depth :3 (I also wear black all the time ;P)

"The video would get really long" Honestly, I would watch you talk for hours about fabrics. I really love this series, it is exactly what I had hoped for! Thank for sharing your time and knowledge with us!

This colour is the one most flattering you ever wore on a video, complete with the makeup you have on (lipstick in the exact same shade!). You should wear it more often.

I love this series! It's so much more informative than the random synthetic bashing you find online.

synthetics aren't for everyone. I have sensitive skin that sweats a lot if the fabric is not breathable. But synthetics are cheaper version of silk and great for special occasion wear or, as mentioned, to strengthen the thin natural materials. Though the downside of mixed materials is that they are cannot be re-used and pollute the environment.

Why can't it be re-used?

julijakeit I'm not even sure how you'd recycle unmixed fibers. Aside from cutting up the old garment to reuse the fabric for a new item, but that can be done with any fabric as long as it's still in good condition.

wingedshadowwof, to my knowledge, the clothing recycling centers sometimes refuse to accept mixed fabrics due to the inability to reuse the material to make a new item. Old clothing in good conditions can always be sold or exchanged.

Most used clothing is too worn to make into new items though? The items are usually chopped up and used it in completely different products like paper. And I googled around if mixed or synthetic fibers can be recycled and from what I've been able to find synthetic fibers definitely can be are are recycled, and while I couldn't find specific information on mixed fibers (though I only spent a few minutes tbh) I saw information that definitely implied that they could also be recycled like any other fabric (a lot of the items i saw described as recyclable fabrics usually use mix fabrics like jeans, most have some spandex, and t shirts.)

I've noticed acrylic sweaters lose their shape fairly quickly. I'd love for you to do an updated video in this series focused on specific garments like sweaters, jeans, etc!

I have a test in my textile science class coming up and I found this series as a great resource. You presented the information better than my professors. Thank you.

What are you or were you studying?

Since my brother started dating someone from the Midwest, she’s really helped me figure out what it was about the sweaters I have that makes winter so unbearable. The VAST majority of them lean heavy on acrylic and I noticed that those that have more acrylic in the mix are the ones that keep me coldest AND make me sweat. So when I’m already cold to start with and then I start sweating it’s just inviting hypothermia. In my circumstance with the way my body responds to acrylic, I’ve decided to cut down on the acrylics I allow in my closet. It’s really helpful to talk to folks from colder, hotter, more humid, etc climates when you struggle with keeping warm or cool or dry. People have been living in all those climates for centuries. They are a wealth of knowledge and if hearing from them helps you find clothes you will wear, it’s SO worth it. Really, the best clothes out there are ones that you wear and that support your way of life

When I started watching your fabrics series I thought to myself "This is boring. I don't sew... I don't care!" But I kept watching (something about your voice) and I really learnt a lot. I may not sew but I love clothes, I love my clothes and I have learnt so much about the different materials that my clothes are made of and how to take care of them. Truthfully I used to ignore those tags with the information ... and now I actually want to pay attention to it. I need to rewatch these and maybe even take notes!

Very informative, Justine, thank you! We have to educate ourselves about fabrics because salespeople in shops don't seem to be trained on the basics of fabrics and cuts anymore.

I work with travel clothing and this is helping me a lot. We actually sell a brand that makes all their garments with 96 Polyester and the rest spandex. Women love it because it absolutely does not wrinkle, drapes beautifully and does not cling to the body. Our best selling brand. Amazing what fabrics can do these days.

This is one of those channels where I’ll gladly watch all the ads, because I’m happy to support your hard work and creativity! Thanks for bringing educational, interesting content, Justine!

It's really impressive how much you know about the history and science of fashion!

I love to research it - especially the fun facts around the "hard facts". Somehow that's the part I remember without trying ;-) Like the parachutes in nylon or the Saturday Night Fever suits in polyester...

Could you make a video on different types of fabrics like organza, satin, lace, etc? Tell us what they are good for, what they are normally used for and what kind of style or vibe it creates. It would be really helpful, thank you!

Please take us with you on a field trip to see how a fiber is made!! That would be awesome.

I don't know how I missed your fabric videos! So glad I found them. ALL your videos are so interesting and informative. You don't ramble randomly like many KZreadrs. Thank you for the grey background and the proper lighting too. I had to pause the video because I just HAD to tell you how complimentary your top is. The colour suits you perfectly. OK back to your video 😊

Merci, Justine! I thought I knew all about synthetic fibers, butI learned a lot from this video. It’s helpful to hear about both the advantages & the disadvantages of the various fibers.

Fabulous colour on you Justine. And what a great primer on synthetic fibers, learn so much from you!

This channel easily ranks as the best and most informative. How wonderful to learn these things about clothes and fabric. More wonderful is your way of explaining everything! Thank you for creating all of this. Slowly making my way through all your great videos. 🙏🏼👏🏼🌟🌟🌟🌟❤️💯🏆🥇

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. You are a great teacher Justine!

So interesting! Justine, could you also tell us which fibers you consider to be the most environmentally gentle for the bulk of our wardrobe? It's difficult for consumers to decide whether this or that natural fiber is better (water, pesticides, dyes), or whether a synthetic is even worse (petrochemicals, non-biodegradable...) Obviously anyone who buys fewer pieces, and will repair rather than discard for prolonged wear, is also helping. But for fibers in daily wear I'd like to hear your expert thoughts. Some readers may get upset about these subjects, so skip it if you think it would be starting a fight. The most important thing is keeping the positive atmosphere you've built here.

Exactly my point. Synthetic fabrics aren't too good for the skin, the question is what is the actual damage (if you' re not allergic or have sensitive skin) and are mixed synthetic fabrics better for skin. It may seem that mixed fabrics are better than 100% polyester but I've heard that mixed fabrics are impossible to recycle later. So they may be even worse for the environment. I think more people should talk about this subject and it is very important in a time when we start to drown in trash and drinking microplastic.

I work in retail, so your videos really come in handy. But this one I LOVED! So informative, so easy to understand. You are great! :)

I'm thoroughly enjoying this fabric series. Thanks!

Super helpful series, thank you Justine!! Your explanations are so easy to understand 😄

Love these informative videos.. This is the first time in my life I'm hearing about these fabrics.. Keep them coming..

Justine, I love your videos and they are brilliantly informative. Keep them coming!

Thank you, thank you, thank you Justine!!!! Loved this video. I have been avoiding artificial fabrics in my clothing as much as possible. It was great to find out which artificial fibers are most breathable, and worth a try. Great series!

Your videos are truly so educational and fascinating, Justine! Thank you for explaining about both natural and synthetic fibers. :)

Wonderful series on fabrics. Really enjoying the information. Thank you!

Love the series! Learning a lot, which helps decluttering and making better choices clothewise. Merci Justine :)

I found this fascinating Justine, I very much enjoyed your very clear and articulate explanation of the composition of fabrics. I feel so much more informed now x

Wonderful information, thank you! That color is stunning on you. You look radiant.

Justine, I love this series! It's so interesting. Since you "confirmed" my intuitive preference of mixed fibers I'm so happy that it's not only a subjective impression but makes sense. One reason I avoid 100% synthetic fibers is the static charge.

Thank you so much for this video. I'm a fashion student and needed to study different fibres, properties and characteristics for my textiles test the next day, very helpful and straight to the point briefings. Picked up so much information in a short period of time. I was able to put things together in my own understanding. Forever grateful!

Really enjoyed this - you have a knack for making the complicated understandable, and such a lovely and friendly manner :) And this is the BEST colour (top and lips) I've seen on you yet - sooo flattering! xo

You are incredible! Your knowledge is vast, your presentation clear, practical, and helpful; your manner delightful.

This is why I love this channel.

I really enjoy watching these videos! So concise and pleasant to listen to. Looking forward to pay more attention to fabrics when shopping next time :)

Your videos are so informative I can’t wait for the next one to come out. Thank you

Thank you! This series is very informative, actually all of your videos are! Your channel is so good and different from what's out there, I find myself waiting for the next one 😁

Justine, excellent again! This is a learning day. All this info will help me be a more conscientious shopper. Thanks!

Awesome video! I've always been curious about some synthetic fabrics, really good presentation!

Really enjoyed this but also can't say enough how great you look in this colour!

Great content in this series!

So informative! As always. I was just about to write and ask you to talk about your preference in mixed fabrics and suggestions on what % is good and why....and then you announce it as the next video. :) Can't wait! :)

excellent video! you're. the best!

Justine, really enjoyed this video. It was a good review of fabric types; learned about them in Jr. High School (1960's) and I'm still interested in all types of fabrics. Thanks for all your videos, they're excellent.

Love Naketano. The hoodie looks good on you. :)

thank you Justine for these advice. I am educating myself because of you about the healthy materials options. Mecri ^-^

I love this video! it's very interesting and factual!

Justine, thank you so much for your videos!

i love this series!! it's something that's super helpful but i almost never hear youtubers talk about (besides the common "natural is better than synthetic" claim)

You blew my mind with the nylon and the “click click click click” sound it makes when you stretch it.

I absolutely love fabric gorgeous fabric that is. Please continue with this series and would love to know know more about which fabric fibers are better to mix

Finally, somebody understands me :)))) For a long time I’ve been feeling like I am the only one who is sensitive to artificial fibres and can only wear natural ones. Most people never bother looking for the composition of the garments, they rather care for the looks and colours.

Thank you for your great knowledge. 🎉

Great info as always!

Another great video, thank you!

Great info, thank you, I enjoyed listening to it, makes a lot more sense about fabrics now I come to think about it. Btw love your hoodie :)

Thank you, very informative and I noted the comment about oils bonding with poly. I stopped using dryer sheets years ago and dry much less than I used to. I'm trying to get my family on board with care of clothing especially activewear.

Thank you for your vidoes - i learn so much!

Your vids are so helpful!!

Very educational!

The video would get really long? Oh, never! I love watching your videos so much.

Love your videos, Justine! Hugs from Toronto!
