Eco-Fashion
Green is the New Black
Check out new ways to look good and feel even better about yourself while you’re at it. Discover the latest and trendiest ways that fashion is going earth-friendly. Held in the swanky “Green Scene” Lounge, our Eco-Fashion Shows will feature apparel and accessories made with sustainable fabrics and recycled materials that are easy on the earth and on the eyes. Both adults and children events will provide great ideas for incorporating your ecological values with your personal style in order to achieve a look that works for you and for the planet. This is one trend that has a long future ahead of it.
Sustainable Materials
Sustainable materials are recycled or made of natural fibers like 100% organic cotton and hemp. In years past, the very idea of sustainable fashion carried with it the perception of sacrificed style. Not any longer. With the increasing interest in going green, forward thinking fashionistas are showing style-conscious, environmentally responsible consumers that they can have it all. Consumer demand is evident with the 2007 announcements of some of this nation’s largest retailers become the largest procurers of 100% organic cotton worldwide.
The fashion world is also becoming more aware of the need to address fair trade issues. This speaks to the conditions under which clothing is produced throughout the world, ensuring that fair prices are paid for labor, fair conditions are given to workers, and that fair environmental policies are followed.
