Kaska Hass’ High Eco Fashion Spring/Summer ’12 collection brought a light and breezy energy to the Lavera Showfloor in Berlin. Inspired by wind energy, Hass designed pieces that were as jagged as wind turbines and gathered in ways that created an airy buoyancy. Crisp organic cotton items looked as fluffy as freshly washed laundry [...]

Inhabitants of Philadelphia’s Crane Arts Building have a novel approach to the increasing cost of energy: make their own. To be fair, the inhabitants aren’t exactly strangers to solar energy. The building houses Solar States, which works to eliminate barriers to solar energy. When the company was looking for their first installation, they simply looked [...]

The mission is to keep usable material from the waste stream and to create affordable art from it.

Eco fashionistas, with party season upon us (why let New Year’s end with the ball drop?! Being stuck indoors means being stuck indoors with all your closest buds dressed to the nines, I like to say!), let the extravagance begin! I’ve put together a chic look that screams originality and style for ultra glam party [...]

“No! Where am I supposed to go to buy cheap goods now?!” read the comment on a link posted by one of my friends on Facebook. The posted link opened to a breaking news story about the recent scandal surrounding Target Corporation, the home goods darling of young liberals and hipsters alike. Back in August, [...]

Although Keia worked hard for success in film/TV and editorial as a key costumer and celebrity stylist, she claims to never let go of her first love: creative recycled fashions.

Newly arrived on the art-house circuit, Exit Through the Gift Shop is a nearly priceless satire of the contemporary art scene, especially if you’re willing to buy into what may be an elaborate inside joke of the Borat School. There’s a revolving door of characters in this droll indie documentary, beginning with Thierry Guetta, its [...]

Every kid wants to make comic books, but not every kid grows up to STILL want to make them. Why? What largely occurs is a lack of mentorship in the comic industry, the art world, and our very culture that leaves many aspiring comic writers and artists twisting in the wind at over-priced colleges and [...]

You never know where you’ll find inspiration, whether it’s from browsing at what the celebs are wearing this week or by just going the simple route on a lazy day and seeing what’s on the internet. My own browsing has led me to some fab finds that have become a sort of Day in the [...]

Vaute Couture is a women’s apparel company specializing in outerwear. The materials are always alternatives to animal-derived fabrics and hold an earth-friendly sustainable status. Designer Leanne became an activist at a young age and how she integrated her passion into a business is amazing. It doesn’t hurt that she used to be a model in [...]

Recently, I spotted Crystal Renn on the Toronto Fashion Week runway and was thrilled to see that they’d included the gorgeous size 12 model. She’s a positive role model for women and girls, the author of the empowering book “Hungry”, and a stunning beauty with good taste in fashion. Her classic white blouse paired with [...]

  The collaboration of Tim Burton and Johnny Depp is nothing new. They’ve been together a total of nine times, and they’ve brought in some good money from the theaters. However, when Burton works with Depp, he has a tendency to remake a text, such as “Alice in Wonderland”, which is currently in theaters. At [...]

It was May 1968 (Mai 68) and the streets of Paris’ Latin Quarter boiled. Student protesters clashed with police, and an 11 million worker strike almost collapsed the government of President Charles de Gaulle. The unintended consequences infused Paris with a more liberal ideal and planted a sense of liberation for the cause of human [...]

Each piece is made by hand in limited editions which reflect the quality, care and attention to detail.

I can’t count the number of times I’ve heard women complain that they see a lot of clothes they love but they just don’t know how to put it all together. To make life easy for you, I’m doing the legwork. Here are my sustainable picks for the week (and they all work together!)

It can be difficult to translate the looks you love on your favorite starlets into sustainable, eco-friendly looks you’ll wear. So don’t knock yourself out—let me do the work for you. Socially conscious dressing has never been easier.

It touches my heart to see a businesswoman so eloquently offer saleable and artistic goods with all the right ethics beautifully predetermined.
