Green Options

Designer Adele Wechsler, a South Africa native and current Toronto resident, doesn’t see green weddings as merely a passing trend, but “as more of a movement that’s here to stay.”  Adele’s newest Eco-Couture Collection transcends preconceived notions of eco bridal wear by seamlessly blending high fashion luxury with organic fabric and fair-trade labor.

When Green with Glamour wrote in today wishing us sunshine & flowers in bloom, I became delightfully curious about their Spring offerings. I fell for this gorgeous sundress. It is an unusual and interesting piece as the print was painted by elephants! It’s the brilliant result of an “uplifting & artistic collaboration” between the designers of Prophetik and the AEACP (Asian Elephant Art Conservation Project).

When Alison Rothwell’s youngest daughter developed severe baby eczema, she searched for eczema-friendly baby clothing.

Rothwell observed when she wore organic cotton baby clothing, it helped relieve her eczema.  After she outgrew her organic babywear, Rothwell shopped for funky organic kids clothing and couldn’t find any she fancied.  So the UK-based Rothwell decided to create her own and Arabella Miller was born.
