GreenShows Preview: Dress Reform

I will be heading to the farm upstate mid-week for some much needed downtime and an opportunity to celebrate my Mom's felted creations at the local Labor Day craft fair. I am excited to be back next week as NYFW gears up, and The GreenShows kick off soon thereafter. These luscious images from Dress Reform's S/S 2010 collection really express something about summer that one hates to see fade away. I cannot wait to see what they have in store for 2011.

Designer Krystal Hoffacker "draws in myriad inspirations when she designs Dress Reform. Her imagination is kindled by nature, ethnic garb, vintage clothing and textiles and the arts of collage, quilting and shibori. Her exacting hand designs sustainable and stylish garments that are at once contemporary and timeless."


A designer after my own heart. See you on the other side of September for more green fashion inspiration.
