From scraps to details: the beauty of reuse in our bows and sachets
There's a story we love to tell, woven with intertwined threads, expert hands, and small daily choices that make a difference. It's the story of the fabrics we use for our gift packaging bows and our multi-purpose pouches, which don't come from new rolls of fabric, but from precious scraps: those from the bespoke shirt tailoring of Sartoria Bocchese in Vicenza.
In tailoring, every shirt is cut with precision, but some trimmings are inevitable. Yet, for us, those trimmings are not waste: they are opportunities. We carefully salvage them and transform them into beautiful and functional small accessories that tell a precise story—that of intelligent reuse, local collaboration, and artisanal value.
The fabrics we receive are predominantly in shades of white and blue, the most classic and requested colors in the world of shirt-making. They are delicate, light hues that speak of cleanliness, simplicity, and care: precisely the values we want to convey with every Tilla product.
Every bow that ties a package, every pouch carefully sewn by the skilled hands of the creative and solidarity-based D-Hub Atelier in Verona, carries a dual story: that of the tailor shop that generated it and that of the person who will receive it. It's a way not to waste beauty, to give new life to quality materials, and to network with artisan businesses that share our vision.
Sustainability, aesthetics, and relationships: all of this can start with a small piece of fabric.
And we are happy to embark on this journey together, one bow at a time.
