The Stanford Sustainable Fashion Collective (SSFC) hosted a sustainable fashion show on Earth Day, 2011, as part of the Vision Earth Festival.
SSFC’s Kiyan Williams was Production Director & Stylist. (Kiyan was recently in The New York Times Education Life section on The Eco Look), and he provided this highlight:
The show was attended by many throughout the Stanford community—students, faculty, and local residents. Linda Balti and Chrsitoph Frehsee of Amour Vert Paris cheered as models graced the runway in their latest collection. The most notable attendees were teenagers from East Palo Alto, a neighboring low-income community. SSFC hosts workshops on sustainable fashion at the Boys and Girls Club in East Palo Alto. The teenagers who attended the show participated in an eco-fashion workshop, and got to see some clothes they upcycled on the runway. The workshops are a part of the Stanford Sustainable Fashion Collective’s efforts to make sustainability a practical (and fashionable) life choice for everyone.
