Too sexy for global warming? Beat the heat and be a part of the solution at Portland Fashion Week- where Spring/Summer 2010 collections of eco-couture, urban casual, street, and activewear will be showing October 7th- 11th. The 2006 "Country's #1 Sustainable City" winner is not only a mecca for modern art, design, and urban development, but is revealing itself to be one of fashion's best-kept secrets, holding the second longest running fashion week on the West Coast, and the world's only completely eco-friendly, sustainable fashion week production!Green has been the new black for a while now, but this green runway show of nationally-acclaimed sustainable designers takes it a step fashion forward towards a sustainable future by demonstrating by example how thoroughly green fashion can be, using everything from eco-friendly materials to construct the runway, to eco-safe styling products to make up the models, to certified sustainable hotels for their guests. And as if all that isn't contribution to the greener good enough, Portland Fashion Week also pays it forward to their independent, eco-friendly designers, allowing them to save some green and still participate and gain exposure, giving designers such as Project Runway winner Leanne Marshall their start. What better reasons to shake your little tush on over to Portland to be a part of this clean, green fashion scene!
