Going Green is Not a Fad!

Being “Green” is all about saving energy, money, and the planet.

However, it’s more than just recycling your aluminum cans. It’s a lifestyle that is becoming more important as global issues such as healthcare, global warming, water shortages, deforestation, etc. are on the rise. Being green is about being healthy and sustainable. It’s about reducing our carbon footprint and living responsibly.

How does this affect the fashion industry? Simple.
