Synopsis
Beth Fiteni, founder and director, Green Inside and Out Awareness, will talk about how to make more sustainable choices when it comes to selecting your wardrobe.
Awareness is growing about the benefits of organic food, but what about chemicals in the clothing we wear? In this presentation featuring the highlights of The Green Wardrobe Guide – Finding EcoChic Fashions That Look Great and Help Save the Planet, you will learn about organic cotton, hemp, bamboo, tencel and other natural fabrics, how to extend ecofashion to our housewares and body products, and where to find sustainable eco-fashions. We will explore the connection between our clothes, the planet, and those who produce the fabrics. Discover shocking facts about the clothing you wear every day, find out who is producing sustainably – or not, and be inspired by current innovations.
