Bold Eco Fashion

Piles and piles of plastic everywhere in the form of bags from supermarkets, cables and wiring covers, other packaging materials from consumer products. Environmentalists going frenzy over the accumulation of plastics on earth and campaigners voicing out loud to switch to sustainable resources compared to the use of plastics in our daily lives.

When I was trending on recyclable fashion, I came across this bright picture and thought of sharing this on my blog. The model is wearing a head-dress made out of discarded ethernet cables. Bright as they are, fashion students from Medellin, Columbia came up with this unique dress on the ramp. It closely resembles any server room of an IT firm. Twined and intertwined long lengths of brightly colored cables. 

What a way to promote "Recycle-Reduce-Redesign" and a perfect way to inspire that Recycled Fashion can be colorful too. 

Sustainability - Fashion & Retail

Fashion today speaks more languages than just one, the likes of which being fair trade, ethics, sustainability etc. Today, an average retailer is implementing these key drivers in their entire value chain system to please the customer and carve a niche for themselves. Every retailer is incorporating these additional components as an essential part of their products. Retailers are re-creating their supply chain, corporate communication channels and management structures to adhere to these components. At many times even re-branding and sub-branding to promote this change to their customers.

The race however still remains among the retailers as to who is doing the most and the best in creating a better tomorrow.
