As a leading denim producer, ISKO is dedicated to redefining the future of fashion through innovative and responsible textile solutions with its fashion-first approach that complements sustainability, emphasising that sustainability need not compromise style. The KOKORO collection – where all denim is crafted using ISKO fabrics – exemplifies this commitment. Thanks to ISKO’s premium recycled denim, the collection maintains high-end quality while significantly reducing its environmental footprint, resulting in beautifully crafted fashion pieces.

“Real change in fashion happens when innovation meets integrity and purpose. Our collaboration with BLANCHE shows that responsibility and great design are not opposing forces – they strengthen each other. This is the future of denim: responsible, resilient, and ready to inspire", said Keith O’Brien, Senior Global Marketing & PR Manager at ISKO.

The KOKORO collection will be available online and in stores from February 2025.
