DC's Fashion Week is here !!

The Eco Fashion Show premiered Monday, September 19, 2011 and was sponsored by Inova & Perkins + Will.

Tuesday, September 20 premiered the "Second Lives: the Age-Old Art of Recycling Textiles". This highlighted how people from different cultures have efficiently repurposed worn fabrics to create beautiful new textiles. This took place at the Textile Museum.

If I would have known there were going to be eco-fashion, I would have made it my mission to attend!

PARSONS "REDUSE.REUSE.RECONSTRUCT"

I am utterly in love with Parsons. I'm currently in the application process for their environmental studies program. I love how they are able to mix my major in environmental studies with fashion. Students in the Association in Applied Science program were given a project to design clothes leaving zero waste and using sustainable materials for their designs. Here are a few things these brilliant students came up with.
