“I WENT GREEN WITH RCGD BECAUSE WE SHOULDN’T HAVE TO CHOOSE BETWEEN FABULOUS STYLE AND GOOD HEALTH.
Sustainable fashion means checking your care labels like a nutrition label and expecting more from brands. Consumers have the power to shift the fashion industry. Brands pay attention to what consumers desire because they do want your money. Transparency is key. #MakeShiftHappen A healthy open source supply chain has a positive effect on farmers, cutters, sewers, bleachers, washers, fabric dyers, nearby communities, retail employees, your family and you. #Whatsinyourtee Have you ever thought about the fabric that makes up your tee as ingredients the same way you think about the leaves that make up your tea? Tea is ingested through your mouth and your tee is ingested through your pore. ‘Your pores are like tiny little mouths, whatever you put on them they eat.’ This was why I chose MINK vegan pumps made of recycled paper when asked to support and style the RCGD Global/Reformation collection – No Red Carpet Needed.”
