At livbio, all our clothes are considered a living being since cotton is a fruit of the cotton plant just like your food i.e fruits, vegetables, pulses, herbs, etc. The only difference between them is that one is used to develop your internal body (food) and the other for protecting your external body (Natural Dyed cotton clothes).
