PROJECT EARTH DAY 2008: EGB Eco fashion event


Eco-fashion loving New Yorkers came out in droves last Thursday night for the annual Project Earth Day green runway show/fashion design competition. The turnout was even more impressive than last year’s event, and the Teknion showroom was a teeming with Earth Week eco-chatter, the latest in fresh green style, and yummy organic treats and beverages. Slated as an eco take on Project Runway, this year’s designs and creations were impressively innovative as well as gorgeously tailored from the latest sustainable textiles and organic materials. It was totally thrilling to see the student designs light up the runway with the glow of their future-forward ideas as well as some real sustainable saviness already radiating from the next generation of young eco designers. Read on for some of the night’s highlights as well as PHOTOS from both the designer runway show and the student design competition>>>

Over two years have passed since Earthrace announced their intention to break the record in “one of the most eco-friendly boats ever made”. Two years during which even the mainstream experienced intense sensitization to green issues.
