As the air cools and the leaves change, October brings a special mix of change, beauty, and cozy moments. From crisp air to hearty vegetables; it’s the perfect time to transition from those lightweight linens to softer french terry and fleece fabrics.
This fall, we’re spotlighting three eco-friendly fabrics—Organic Cotton French Terry, Ribbed Modal, and Organic Cotton & Tencel Fleece—that are ideal for moving from the warm days of summer into the cooler, quieter days of fall.
Organic Cotton French Terry: Soft, Cozy, and Breathable
When you think of fall essentials, Organic Cotton + Tencel™ French Terry is a must-have. This fabric strikes the perfect balance between lightness and warmth, making it a great option for those unpredictable early fall days. French Terry has a smooth outer layer and a slightly textured looped inside, giving it a plush feel without being too heavy.
Why it’s perfect for fall:
- Breathability: It keeps you comfortable in the transitional weather when mornings are cool but afternoons are warm.
- Eco-friendly: Organic cotton is grown without harmful chemicals, reducing environmental impact.
- Versatility: French Terry works well for layering, whether it’s under a jacket or worn solo on mild fall days.
Pair our Agnes Raglan Sweatshirt with your favorite denim or wear it as a comfy lounge fit with our Betty Wide Leg Pant—this fabric brings the cozy vibes while staying put together.
Ribbed Modal: Silky Soft with a Perfect Stretch
Looking for a fabric that feels like a second skin? Ribbed Modal is your go-to. Modal is derived from beech tree pulp, making it not only biodegradable but also one of the most luxurious fabrics around. With a slight ribbed texture, this fabric adds visual interest while maintaining an ultra-soft and silky feel.
Why it’s perfect for fall:
- Lightweight but warm: Modal is great for layering or wearing on its own as temperatures drop.
- Stretchy comfort: The ribbed structure adds natural stretch, making it easy to move in without sacrificing style.
- Sustainability: Modal is known for being produced in a closed-loop process, meaning water and chemicals used during production are recycled.
Ribbed Modal’s luxurious softness combined with its sustainable nature makes it an ideal fabric for transitioning from breezy summer days to fall’s cooler embrace. Throw on our Norma Modal Ribbed Turtleneck with a cardigan, and you’re ready for whatever the season brings.
Organic Cotton & Tencel Fleece: Luxurious Warmth with a Planet-Friendly Twist
For those extra chilly fall evenings, Organic Cotton and Tencel Fleece is a dream. Tencel™, a sustainable fiber made typically from eucalyptus trees, blends beautifully with organic cotton to create a fabric that’s incredibly soft, breathable, and warm. The fleece texture adds coziness, making this fabric perfect for sweaters, joggers, and outerwear.
Why it’s perfect for fall:
- Warm yet breathable: Fleece provides that snuggly warmth we crave as the weather cools, but the Organic Cotton and Tencel™ blend ensures it remains breathable.
- Eco-friendly blend: Both organic cotton and Tencel are sustainably produced, minimizing the environmental footprint of your wardrobe.
- Great for layering: This fabric is perfect for layering up when temperatures drop but is lightweight enough to wear on warmer fall days.
The combination of Organic Cotton and Tencel™ in our Gabbie Oversized Crew Sweatshirt creates a fabric that’s not only cozy, but also aligned with eco-conscious living.
