Greenshowroom and Ethical Fashion Show, two trade fairs were held during Berlin Fashion Week, July 8 to 10. They showcased environment-friendly and fairly produced fashion. This year the fairs had larger stands and more extensive collections. A number of well-known purchasing teams were spotted at the two trade fairs.
Eco fashion represents a profit and genuine add-on element for the retail industry. This year the organizers approached conventional retailers in a targeted way and also addressed the future-oriented topic of green fashion. The overarching theme of the two fairs was vegan fashion. In cooperation with Noveaux, a magazine for vegan fashion and green lifestyle, designers presented looks from their new collections, revealing the high fashion standards of vegan clothing.
Cool cuts, wide silhouettes and strong contrasts were part of the catwalk show. International designers conjured up a touch of retro on the catwalk and brought the seventies to life. The show on the second day presented a varied selection of contemporary eco fashion. Another show revealed the latest trends in the street and casual wear segments. The urban classics were particularly popular, including hoodies, casual shirts and trainers.
The next editions of Greenshowroom and Ethical Fashion Show Berlin will take place January 19 to 21, 2016.
