Mirum® and the Return to Living Matter
A new era in fashion materials — curated by Annette Fleur de Lis
We are entering an age where matter becomes intelligent,
where design is no longer built on extraction — but on communion.
Leather, once a symbol of luxury and brutality intertwined,
is now dissolving into something else:
a future that breathes.
A future that restores.
At the center of this alchemical shift stands Mirum® —
a plant-based, plastic-free alternative to leather,
designed not only to replace,
but to revive the relationship between material and meaning.
Born from the collaboration between Pangaia and Natural Fiber Welding,
the new Air Gilet is not simply an object —
it is a manifesto worn on the body.
No petrochemicals.
No cruelty.
No waste.
Just circular intention — from origin to end of life.
Mirum® biodegrades without residue,
returning its nutrients to the earth it came from.
This is more than innovation.
This is evolution — not of trend, but of consciousness.
We are no longer designing just for wear.
We are designing for legacy, for biology, for the unseen intelligence of life systems.
To wear this vest is not just to consume.
It is to participate in a quiet rebellion.
To choose softness without violence.
Structure without harm.
Design without denial.
This is how the new world is woven:
fiber by fiber, ritual by ritual.
Not with force — but with reverence.
And when the body becomes the altar,
material becomes sacred again.
