Prince Charles has a long love affair with British craftsmanship. He was probably born enveloped in a double-breasted jacket from Savile Row, much is his penchant for the sartorial classic. His Royal Highness believes that through crafting clothing sustainably we can keep British artisans and traditions alive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was his staunch vocal support of sustainability through traditional practices that saw him launch The Prince's Foundation back in 1986. Its focus was to support Scottish heritage across different creative fields, from architecture to knitwear production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fast forward to 2019 and a partnership between Yoox Net-a-Porter\u2019s CEO Federico Marchetti and The Prince's Foundation began with a clear goal. They wanted to work together to empower the artisans of tomorrow. How? By uniting students in Britain and Italy to create a capsule sustainable fashion collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
