NY Fashion Week GreenShows Highlights: Playful Short Dresses

Short is the new hemline for Fall 2010! During NY Fashion Week GreenShows we saw an assortment of playful, flirty dresses anything from above the knee to mini-dresses that are very chic and sophisticated, always keeping the environment in mind. 

I really love how eco-designers are really experimenting with interesting designs, new sustainable fabrics and even digitally-printed fabric which is less toxic on the environment. Checkout some of the great dresses we will see these Fall from eco-fashion designers:


 
Deux FM's Audrey Dress

  
Samantha Pleet's Pleeted Mini Dress

Deux FM's Charlotte Dress in Gunmetal
 
Samantha Pleet's Sexy Serf Dress  

 
Ekovaruhuset's Mika Machida's wool dress with printed cranes

 
Samantha Pleet's Ultra Bustier Dress-Black front/leopard print back

 
John Patrick's Organic's digitally-printed silk chiffon


 Tell us, which one is your favorite?
