ecoSkin: Chic and Green

Sassy eco-Couture

ecoSkin offers contemporary designs for the eco-conscious but fashion-savvy woman. Core to its planet-friendly mission, ecoSkin uses only environmentally sustainable luxury fabrics woven, dyed and sewn in the USA.

ecoSkin is the brainchild of Sandy Skinner. Over the years, Sandy recognized that the apparel industry could do much more to support a healthy environment. She also knew the industry could do more for contemporary women who wanted to live a responsible,green lifestyle but also wanted to look eco-chic and sexy.In 2007 Sandy launched ecoSkin to make a positive difference for apparel customers and planet alike.

Sandy insists her dye houses and manufacturing facilities follow her demanding quality, environmental and labor standards. And, she personally oversees every high-quality and eco-friendly detail, from the selection of raw material to the oversight of meticulous local dying, weaving and sewing to the design of green hang tags and labels.

Skinner’s Spring 2009 collection of 100% bamboo and tencel-crafted garments was inspired by the planet she’s committed to protecting. Natural landscapes are channeled through subtle floral prints, while the locally-dyed pieces come in hues reminiscent of a desert sunset.

We love the sandstone leggings, shown below, for a playful updated basic.
