Green Fashion Show Hits Chicago with High Design and Low Impact
For a week at least, a “busy runway” in Chicago may not be an airport reference.
The 5th Annual Fashion Focus Chicago, a city sponsored 4-day event, will provide stages and spotlights for some of the Midwest’s hottest and most prolific fashion designers, resembling a haute couture gathering more familiar to New York City.
But Bianca and Michael Alexander with Conscious Planet Media have been working hard on a participating runway show that will be unique even to the Big Apple. Vert Couture is a Fashion Focus Chicago runway event highlighting the best in Chicago’s eco-fashion, or fashion that promotes aesthetic design and environmental sustainability.
Vert Couture showcases the work of local designers Lara Miller, Mountains of the Moon, Vaute Couture, Frei Designs, Bryant McLemore Smith and Elise Bergman for the Fall/Winter season. The show will be held at Yates Gallery in the Chicago Cultural Center on Sunday, October 25th from 7pm to 8pm.
“All of the elements of the show will be sustainable--and fabulous,” says Bianca Alexander, show producer and co-founder of
Conscious Planet Media. “And in the spirit of sustainability, all profits from the event will be donated to local charity.”
