Earth Day is still a week away, but Vancouver’s fashion scene had a head start on celebrating sustainability with Eco Fashion Week coming to a close Thursday. Beginning April 10th in Vancouver, BC, Eco Fashion Week presented runway shows with an earth-loving edge, eco-friendly fashion design and a natural point of view, ending with seminars on sustainable style on the final day.
Eco-concsious Canadian designer and winner of Canada’s first Eco-Fashion award Nicole Bridger was one of the Eco Fashion Panel presenters at the event. Bridger’s Earth-aware designs use sustainable fabrics from natural and renewable resources and are dyed with low impact dyes to minimize the impact of fashion on the Earth.
