FABRIC RECYCLING
"Vintage tie headbands are made from vintage designer ties. The vintage tie is disassembled and its fabric is recycled - creating a completely new, unique, and one-of-a-kind accessory - EMILLY headband."

"I always wanted to create a special product for my brand that no one else would have. This was one of my goals when starting the business. As we entered the second year of EMILLY, vintage headbands emerged. I chose the ties for a reason."
"This is one of the items that is truly difficult to obtain and acquire - especially when it is vintage. The quantity of them in the world is very small, and finding one of the same design is almost impossible."
This thought prompted me to create the first headband.
Each collection is special.
It always surprises how it will look when finished. When searching for vintage ties, you never know what you will find and whether you will find anything at all at that moment, so the creation of this collection happens quite differently than others. I don’t draw sketches or think ahead about the idea of why certain colors or patterns were chosen. Everything falls into place on its own - seeing the finished bows, the words and the idea come together by themselves. When sewing the first bows, my hands trembled because you realize that you have only one chance to make a bow, sometimes a few. The fabric of the tie is not always fully usable; some parts simply cannot be renewed sometimes. In many cases, making a bow and a few elastic bands to use up all the fabric - to recycle and create a completely new item, unique, one-of-a-kind, a timeless accessory that I believe we will pass on to future generations.
A meticulously crafted design down to the smallest details, made in Lithuania from high-quality fabrics, is the accessory that will always enhance your image or tame unruly hair. The EMILLY hoop...
The unique/one-of-a-kind product created is not just an accessory, an item that is used to create a daily image - it is a dream to create a special feeling for the client when purchasing an item made just for them. The moment is brief, but very memorable.
