Each piece begins with a conversation. Rather than a traditional transaction, this is an invitation—to co-create something alive.
Helena Elston Studio garments are crafted entirely from deadstock and waste textiles, then paired with living systems like mycelium to form wearable pieces that evolve over time. To purchase, you’ll inquire about a specific garment, and from there, we’ll collaborate: you choose where growth happens, and together we set the stage for transformation.
Once the mycelium process begins, the studio steps back and nature takes over. Every garment becomes a one-of-a-kind expression shaped by uncontrollable variables—growth, decay, color shifts, texture. No two pieces will ever be the same.
By choosing to wear something living, you’re embracing fashion as part of a larger, regenerative cycle—one that begins with waste and ends in renewal.
