The Eco Fashion Week is a non-profit charity event which is dedicated to the support and promotion of sustainable fashion in the fashion industry. With a turnover of more than 300 billion dollars on an annual base, the textile, clothing and fashion industry represents one of the most destructive and resource-consuming branches on our planet. For this reason, the Eco Fashion Week set itself the goal to promote eco-friendly methods to produce and market fashion.
Myriam Lachoe, the founder of the Eco Fashion Week, is organizing this spectacle for the 8th time in a row. She herself admitted in an interview that she was far away from an eco-friendly lifestyle in her youth. Her passion of spreading her eco-conscious lifestyle has developed over time.
During the three-day event, several seminars are taking place for fashion establishments and people who are simply interested. The goal of the seminars is to offer information and learning methods which ought to teach you how to increase sustainability in the fashion branch. Myriam Laroche will herself lead a seminar on April 27th at 14:00.

The EFW of course will too demonstrate the problems of the textile industry. Apart from educational works and the attempt to lead the fashion branch towards an eco-conscious path, this fashion event will of course in the first place deal with fashion! Each evening fashion shows will take place after the seminars.
One of the present designers is Jason Matlo. He designs luxurious women’s fashion in Canada. Each piece of clothing is carefully made by hand. His collections are defined by different stylistic and cultural influences. Above all, he is inspired by the 1930 as a decadent fashion decade. Self-confident women who are looking for innovative design, luxurious fabrics and textures and who place importance on elaborate details will love his collections.

One of the most remarkable developments which can be observed right now is the increasing interest of consumers in the ecologically and ethically correct production of products. Indeed, the concept of eco fashion isn’t only based on the ecological aspect, but also includes the principles of fair trade which means that everyone involved in the production is given fair working conditions and fair wages. From April 27th to April 29th, designers will show that innovative and modern design can easily be connected with sustainability and eco-consciousness.
