Mountains of the Moon is a Chicago-based sustainable fashion line created by designer Melissa Baswell, and actualized through a combination of eco-friendly materials, local sweatshop-free labor, and a refined design element that surpasses short-lived fads without sacrificing style.
From start to finish, our garments are designed, patterned, manufactured, dyed and tagged (using eco-friendly materials) in the USA in small, 100%... (прочетете още) - Мисия:
- At the age of five, designer Melissa Baswell started creating clothing for her dolls using a needle, thread, and reused fabrics. In high school, she was the president of her school’s Ecology Preservation Club, and wore her own handmade clothing created from recycled and organic fabrics. While a student at University of Wisconsin-Madison, Baswell divided her free time between interning with WISPIRG’s Environmental Education Department and recycling thrift store clothing into “renewed” garments on a hand-me-down sewing machine. Well before the green movement became popular, she was using organic cotton and hemp fabrics and dying with low-impact dyes in an effort to create fashion-forward clothing that would break the stereotype of eco-fashion being defined as bland, crunchy, or boring.
Today, Baswell’s work can be found at boutiques worldwide, and has been featured in Boho Magazine, TreeHugger.com, Women’s Wear Daily, Second City Style, Little Designer Book, Runway to Retail, EcoSalon, Eco-Chic Weekly, Style Hive and many others. Her company Mountains of the Moon Eco.Fashion was chosen as one of Green America's ten Green Business of the Year nominees the last three years in a row, and a dress she designed from recycled candy wrappers was recently exhibited at Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art. A regular speaker at green events, Baswell educates audiences on how to easily create green wardrobes without sacrificing style. In addition to designing, Baswell works with several bands and events in the music industry as a stylist, sustainable merchandise designer, and eco-fashion show producer, with clients that include Umphrey's McGee, the Dead, moe., SCI Fidelity Records, Rothbury Festival, Consider it Dan Events,and Los Tortugas Festival.
In an effort to remain true to Melissa's original goals, Mountains of the Moon also makes regular donations, both monetary and in clothing, to several organizations, including American Forests, Oxfam, Carbon Fund, the International Tibet Independence Movement, Conscious Alliance, the Red Door Animal Shelter, and others.
Mountains of the Moon represents more than just a clothing line. We represent the blending of fine art, style, ethics, environmental and social responsibility and awareness. - Продукти:
