The Green Fashion Competition

Yesterday The Green Fashion Competition came to an end with a spectacular award show. Eight different designers gathered with their two models to present their ideas of sustainable fashion to the jury. A jury that consisted of: Georgette Koning, Tony Tonnaer, Manolo Marquez, Wijnand Broer and Paul Vetter from the Dutch ministery of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality.

OpportunityAfter a wonderful show, designers OAT (2nd price) and Elsien Gringhuis (1st price) left a real check which gives the designers the opportunity to set up their actual plans of creating this sustainable fashion line into reality.

  1. I absolutely love how much stuff is happening in green fashion right now. From the NICE conference in Denmark last year, to the Vancouver Eco-Fashion Week, the NYC Green Fashion Shows, the Vegan Fashion Show in San Fran, and the Garden Party to Make a Difference in London, it's just an exciting time.
