NYC Fashion Week."},"content":{"rendered":"

\"\"Conceived to raise the fashion industry’s collective ‘green’ conscience, Aveda<\/a> are partnering with some of the hottest young designers in town and renowned editorial stylists to create an earth-friendly front-row, backstage and overall green fashion week environment. Rodarte, Phillip Lim, Preen<\/span> and Alexander Wang<\/span> are all participating in the innovative “Green Backstage” program.<\/p>\n

Models, designers and media will all be offered emission-free transportation to and from the shows courtesy of Aveda branded petty cabs; organic & locally sourced food is being served to models, stylists, makeup artists and production crews backstage; all use of fur is being eliminated; show invitations and programs are being printed on post-consumer recycled paper; and they’re replacing all bottled water (400 p\/show on average) with reusable SIGG bottles<\/a> that will be filled with NYC tap water (which is actually some of the most pure in the US believe it or not).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“Kate and I believe whole heartedly in working to preserve the environment,” says Laura Mulleavy of Rodarte. “Plastic waste is causing so much destruction.”<\/p>\n

As for us, we’re stoked to see the mainstream fashion world finally leveraging their own brand of celebrity to walk their considerable talk about being more eco-friendly. <\/p>\n

\nInteresting fact: Of the more than 2.5 million bottles of water Americans consume each hour, only around 10% are recycled; the rest go to overflowing landfills. Plastic water bottle production also draws upon 1.5 million barrels of oil each year. Writer :: Emma Pezzack – www.futurenatural.com<\/a>: the best organic beauty products<\/a> in the world.
