See why green is in style in Dallas and where to pick up eco-friendly clothing at Texas Discovery Gardens’ premier Organic in the City Fashion Show. Enjoy an evening of fashion featuring the latest organic styles for men, women and children available in Dallas. Selections include Certaintees, Cotton 2 U by Certaintees, Beyond Yoga, Eco-Centric Style, SoyBu, and Zensei.
Are you still unsure about the differences between organic cotton, bamboo, and hemp or what to look for when buying green? The show features talks from specialists in the fashion industry. Susanne Taylor (of Susanne Taylor & Associates) and Mary Wills (of Strada Verde) will clear up eco-misconceptions and describe the fashion industry’s journey to provide organic and sustainable products. You’ll get an inside look at the entire process from design to your door.
This is also your chance to get a look at the future of sustainable fashion with custom-designed pieces by Ross Bennett. Be one of the first to view his up-and-coming Green Label collection. This Austin, Texas-based designer is sure to turn heads soon! Stay after the show to see our Organic Market, featuring stores such as Green Living, Veria and Strada Verde, as well as local designers and green businesses. Bid on high-end eco-friendly auction items such as a Keen Shoulder Bag courtesy of Whole Earth Provision Co.
This is Texas Discovery Gardens’ premier fashion event to show how visitors can grow organically in all areas of their lifestyle. It is part of the Organic in the City Series. Only 250 tickets will be sold. Pay online by clicking the secure 'Donate Now' button to the left or call (214) 428-7476 x 23.
A special thanks to Rhonda Sargent Chambers with RSC Show Productions for donating her time and energy to produce the show, and to the Campbell Agency.
