The Hemprose Collection is a small collection but one that is unique.
Most people do not realise that cotton is the most heavily sprayed crop in the world. The reason I became interested in using hemp is because hemp is a weed and can be grown anywhere. It does not need pesticides because bugs don’t like it. Also it does not need to be heavily irrigated. The Dry Tears of the Aral Sea explains why hemp is the crop of the future. There is a link on my site, it is a UN Report. It explains that in the 60’s an entire sea dried up in Russia because of cotton farming leaving a pit of toxins. Once I read this, I had to find an alternative.
T-shirts are something that no one can do without. I like to be as eco conscience as possible and mostly buy my clothes second hand, but sometimes a good t-shirt is a must. I designed The Rockdress/Nitie, because it is so versitile. It’s so soft you will want to wear it to bed, because it looks amazing over jeans or a swim suit. It fits so well and hugs you in all the right places, this makes it flattering to all figures. So well designed it shows off curves. Nursing mums also love it. Nighties are normally too frilly or too sexy, this one is super cool. It is also priced well, so that everyone can try one. The good thing about hemp, is it last for ages. It washes so well, and always keeps it shape. The Green Parent featured it this month and loves it, called it “scrumptious”!
The shortie collection called Starlet by Hemprose, is super cute. Designed, dyed and sewn by hand in the UK. The shorties are like French knickers, and again very versatile, they will look great at the beach or really sweet as shorties to wear to bed with a little vest. Teenage girls love the look, and mums look good in them too!
I haven’t left out the Hemperor, and have a very comfortable light weight long sleeve t-shirt for men. Yoga Magazine endorsed it and was impressed with the design, said it is great for exercise but looks good too.
I hope you like this collection, and keep checking back, it’s always evolving.
Thanks for looking.

I bought a Rockdress/Nitie a few weeks ago, and took it to Spain on holiday.
I loved wearing and got lots of compliments, the fabric feels so nice. I like travelling light, so it was perfect because I wore it alot!
