Going Green in 2012

Sustainable and organic materials become the norm as consumers begin to become environmentally conscious. Going "green" is a trend that has been a long time coming and it is finally a trend that fashion can not avoid. Below are a few examples of this trend.
The above photo is a line of handbags made from recycled clothing by Hope Globe that were showcased at London's Fashion week.

The handbag line shown above is by Tamara Foggle and is actually made from old sails from old sail boats.

This is the tag that you will find in the handbags that are made from old sails.



As everything begins to get more and more organic and green, colors are going to turn from the bright and neon colors that we have been seeing lately and turn more relaxed and natural, really neutral pallets.
