Coffee fabrics with milky clothes

I recently posted an item concerning the use of coffee beans as an ingredient for a new fabric. Guess what; you can combine your coffee fabric with a cloud of milky clothes.
According the Wall Street Journal Online:
“Per Aage Sivertsen, winner of this spring’s Oslo Fashion Week designer award (Naløyet) in February and creative mind behind the Norwegian “eco-lux” brand FIN, plans to make part of next year’s spring/summer collection from a gauze-like fabric based 100% on milk proteins. Making fabric from milk frees up land that would otherwise have been used to grow cotton, a crop vilified for its intense water consumption and high pesticide use.”
