We built our brand on defying expectations. Style shouldn't harm the Earth, and sustainability shouldn't limit yours. The NY Fashion Act was a step towards that future. The Act may not have passed this year, but we're not giving up. We know millions of you, like us, refuse to compromise. You deserve both: a wardrobe that makes you feel good and doesn't harm the environment. Join us in the fight for a future where fashion takes responsibility.

The Fashion Act made historic progress this legislative session. We are at an inflection point. It is becoming clear to players within the fashion space, the media that covers it, and legislators that sustainability in fashion will simply not happen on its own and that common sense regulation is urgently needed. Will legacy brands, multi-stakeholder initiatives, trade associations, and sustainable fashion fora be roadblocks, or will they choose leadership and join the forward-looking brands, suppliers, innovation companies, educators, ambassadors, students and advocates who are the future of the industry? (For those that want to join us, reach out!) Either way, the Fashion Act will not be stopped. My thoughts at the close of the NY legislative session.
