Last Chance Textiles (LCT) was founded in 2015 by Lindsey Fout, a textile designer, researcher, and teacher. Originally from West Virginia, her rural Appalachian upbringing informs the integrity and utilitarian aspects of her work. What began as an exploration of natural dyes in the backyard of her Los Angeles apartment has steadily evolved over the last 11 years. Along the way, LCT has been shaped by personal curiosity, trial and error, a move to Oregon, travels to India, pivots during the pandemic, and the transformative leap into motherhood. Each season brings new challenges, new inspirations, and unexpected adventures. What remains the same is a love for tried and true bandanas, authenticity, and beautiful details. Today, Last Chance makes colorful bandanas and scarves that feel timeless yet super special. Our hand-drawn patterns are based on historical references from around the globe (mostly textiles). Through this lens, textile traditions are both rooted and re-imagined, creating a vision and product that will stand the test of time. We utilize soft and sustainable quality fabrics like organic cotton, naturally dyed silk, and handwoven khadi.
