April is always a busy month…. collaborations and events that have been planned for months finally happen. I would like to share my fun April collaborations:
Narragansett High School Senior Kelsey Urbach has been this year’s intern. She has inspired a new product~ the Mint Lip Duo. We have been working on it for months She participated in formula creation and she had a great focus group of Seniors evaluate the product. The product will on sale at our J.Crew Pop Up April 27th in Rhode Island.
I am also very excited to have participated as a panelist in the Ethical Fashion Forum~Presented by Restored by Design and Senior student team Kayla and Zedekiah from Bryant University Fashion Forum, at Bryant University.
It was an EXCITING and educational evening bringing awareness to sustainability and ethical fashion; an interactive study of sustainability through a fashion show and panel discussion…
A panel discussion made up of local business owners, professionals, professors, and eco-fashion designers, explored the future of Eco-Fashion, problem solving, and how to step into a more ethical lifestyle with style!!!! The evening included a “not your ordinary” fashion show… individual local eco-fashion designers presented their work on the runway and included the opportunity to get up and personal, touch and feel, ask what inspires them, hear the stories behind their creativity… giving you stylish alternatives that GIVE to our future in ethical ways…
