The 'free spirit' of the 70's !

Very timeless looking colours and styles! Amazing!

Organized in collaboration with the FIT Sustainability Council for FIT’s Sustainability Awareness Week, October 8’s panel discussion will bring together designers and product and marketing experts to explore what it means to design with New York-sourced materials.

Join designers Mimi Prober; Melissa Ventosa Martin, founder of Old Stone Trade; Karuna Scheinfeld, co-founder of Four Objects; and Susan Easton, product and marketing director at the New York Fashion Innovation Center. Together, they’ll consider how local production is shaping design, material development, and new possibilities for regional fashion and textile production.
