Eco Style in the UK
Check out this food for thought exhibition: Well Fashioned: Eco Style in the UK. Created in association with the Crafts Council, Well Fashioned explores green style from a variety of angles. Along with showcasing 20 pioneering labels ranging from multi-functional streetwear to recycled eveningwear, the exhibition advises on how we can all buy, wash and dispose of clothes in an ethical and ecological manner.
Another aim of this exhibition, curated by Rebecca Earley, is to demonstrate how innovative, stylish and inspiring eco design can be. Forget those stereotypes of old - green fashion has moved on - and so should we.
