Selecting the right material for a specific piece is a crucial part of the designing process. Nona Source is an online resale platform which offers both natural and synthetic deadstock materials such as silk, viscose or polyester. If these fabrics are indeed of different nature, their quality is equivalent and remains unchanged. These luxury materials come straight from LVMH’s great Fashion Maisons.

The luxury Maisons of the LVMH group carry excess fabrics and leathers due to various reasons, such as minor defects invisible to the naked eye, minimum order quantity, or even because a new designer Creative Director has been named. These luxurious materials deserve to be upcycled. Therefore, Nona Source has developed an online platform to sell unused high-end fabrics and leathers.

Their composition as well as the weaving and finishing techniques used to make them are demonstrations of artistic craftsmanship and excellence.

Although eco-friendliness hits the headlines in the fashion media, the definition of the very concept remains unclear. In order to understand the commitments and issues regarding this approach, it is essential to clearly define its scope. Eco-friendliness is closely linked to the notion of sustainable development, which is based on 3 major angles: the environmental, social and economic aspects. Nona Source pioneered selling end of line materials from the LVMH group’s Maisons. The platform adheres to an eco-friendly approach in various ways, notably by promoting sustainability in fashion as well as destocking discount fabrics and leathers online.

Over the past few years, many fashion companies have shown in creative and ingenious ways that all principles of circular economy can be applied to their designs. Nona Source plays a role in repurposing and adding value to materials by putting LVMH’s deadstock fabrics and leathers back on the market using a circular approach.

Designing clothing and footwear for a fashion collection using clearance fabrics and leathers is challenging. By using a pre-existing material, brands have to reinvent fashion design, find new sources of inspiration and come up with new ways to design and produce, to different extent. Nona Source offers a wide range of unsold materials, from lace to lamb leather and satin, thus contributing to repurposing LVMH Maisons’ high end fabrics and leathers.
