This year 'wool' is seen to reign over the Green Shows' Presentation in New York Fashion Week. Organic fibers have been the key focus of eco-fashion all along, but it was interesting to see the shift in fabrics being dominated by heritage wool solely throughout the show.
For Fall/Winter 2012, designs were simple and yet striking. Extensive use of eco-dying methods were exhibited along with artful drapes of fabric and hair on the Runway. Apart from tones and shades of just green there were to be seen a myriad of other color tones and shades from use of vegetable dyeing sources.
