Uniliver and Magnum Explore Sustainable Fashion with the Cocoa Dress

Uniliver and Magnum have teamed up with Dutch fashion designer Iris van Herpen to create a wearable vegan dress made from cocoa beans, the first of its kind in haute couture. The dress was made using Magnum's own materials, 3D printing technology and cocoa bean pods, which were processed into an all-organic biopolymer material.

 

The dress worn by Cindy Bruna, which walked the runway at Paris Fashion Week, has a three-dimensional design and features copper embellishments. The dress pays homage to Magnum's vegan policy, with plant-like details that emphasize sustainability. Moreover, this is not the brand's first sustainable fashion work. Magnum has already made a name for itself by collaborating with supermodel Cara Delevigne-Moschino and model Bella Hadid-Alexander Wang.
