Check out Starre Vartan’s recent post on Huffpo Green entitled:  “If the Future of Fashion Isn’t Green, What Is It?” where she gives an inside scoop on the eco fashion summit/discussion/debate/salon that took place this month in New York.  Vartan gives an excellent analysis of the issues that were discussed and wraps up with a paragraph that makes me want to cheer out loud:

Fashion is evolving, and despite James Woudhuysen’s view, it seems that change is coming from designers, passionate ecofashionistas who support them, and the behind-the-scenes folks who do the heavy lifting to get new clothes to us each season. Julie Gilhart makes the point: “Now and in the future, it’s not really about being ‘green’, per se. I see the need to develop and sell fashion and consumer products, in general, which contain a greater level of consciousness. Period.”

BRAVO!!!
