The Latest Green Fashion Shows
On October 17th, EarthPledge presented a FutureFashion show in New York. This is the only event of all that I actually attended. I was a little disappointed by the presentation of twelve looks, only because I had seen four of them back in 2005 from the first EarthPledge event. Apparently several of those same pieces made their way down Seattle s runway as well, as Oscar de la Renta is not a name we typically associate with organic cotton.
However, I was happy to see a few designers committed to sustainability included this time around and the event was held at ABC Carpet Home which is never a bad place to hang out. The store has a strong commitment to sustainability and was also promoting its ecologically sensitive furniture. Read the full review with links and pictures here .
