Be EcoChic Event and Campaign

September 4, 2008 · Print This Article

We’ve posted tips that week on how to green your wardrobe by washing laundry in cold water and giving new life to unwanted clothes and jewelry. whether you’ve been bitten by the eco fashion bug and want more tips on that topic–or more environmental responsibility in the fashion industry–consider visiting BeEcoChic.com. It’s the just-launched web site for a new campaign sponsored by the Sierra Club.

Lest you think that is vapor-wear (all talk and no green clothes), the

campaign kicks off tonight with a bang: Sierra Club Executive Director Carl Pope will hit the red carpet at a runway show featuring designs from Tierra Del Forte
of Del Forte Denim (which uses organic cotton), Donna Karan of DKNY,
and others using recycled or otherwise low-impact fabrics. It all
starts tonight at 7pm at the American Museum of Natural History in New
York.
