Sustainable Fashion in Philadelphia

September 4, 2012
This year at the Born Free USA’s 4th Annual fffashion (Fur Free Fashion) Competition attracted emerging designers from around the globe who believe in the benefits of shunning fur, protecting animals and the environment, and embracing the green fashion movement. 
Third Place and Student Award: Philadelphia-based designer and Drexel University student Jessica Mintz won for her "Modern Lace-Up," a couture gown with a corseted inner structure. The skirt is constructed of a three-ply crepe; the black in the bodice is double-faced satin; and the two grey tones in the bodice are silk diupioni. White organza up the neck is laced through gunmetal grommets and the back neck closure is a large gunmetal clasp.
