Haute Eco-Couture at the Ethical Fashion Show in Paris

This month marked the sixth annual Ethical Fashion Show at Paris Fashion Week. We regret that we were unable to attend, but Ecouterre has the scoop:
[T]he four-day Ethical Fashion Show hosted more than 100 accessory and clothing designers at Le Tapis Rouge. Industry vets, including Veja sneakers, Terra Plana, and Article 23 were there alongside newcomers such as Nu Jeans and Como No. Nu stood out as with its dark denim in classic straight and slim fits. Its production is Oeko-Tex-certified, and it uses nickel-free buttons, rivets and zippers. Como No’s organic cotton patterned bags and “wellies” are fresh, fun, and fair-made.
The more cutting-edge designers, however, were located in The Marais. At the Green Showroom, Andrea Klusener showed her Spring 2010 collection of beautiful dresses. Using draping and knotting techniques, Klusener transformed organic cotton and silk into dreamy frocks in a muted palette of light blues and grays.
Pictured above: one of Andrea Klusener’s fairy-tale creations. For more photos and reviews, check out the whole post.
