Week 7

This week I will be talking about fashion news. Vera Bradley has launched a campaign add saying taking a new look at Vera Bradley. The new line features not so traditional Vera Bradley. These are not the patch work that we are used to, they are bright leather bold colors. Colors that I was able to find were hot pink and orange. I looked on Vera Bradley’s Site but didn’t seem to be on the website. I only saw it in Teen Vogue and on there Instagram.

Week 6

A big fashion trend that is coming into play for fall 2014 is print. Print has been shown on different designers like Preen By Thornton Bregazzi , Kenzo, Proenza Schouler, and Dries Van Noten. One of the biggest prints that hit the run way was the star wars themed that was deigned by Rodarte at the fall 2014 fashion show.

WEEK 5

This week I will be talking about fashion news. Neil Young is asking his fans to join in with him to boycott non- organic cotton. He listed several reasons for going organic but the big reason was “2,700 liters of water is used to grow the cotton for just 1 t-shirt. … That’s enough water for 1 person to drink for 900 days or enough water to flush your (non low flow) toilet 270 times!” –Young Cotton is one of the world’s direst crops. Consumers that are aware of this are pushing companies to pursue cleaner options. H&M is number one when it comes to organic cotton. Not so much because it is safer for the earth, it is probably because of the cost is a lot cheaper. This is especially good when it comes to a fast fashion store.
