Eco-Designers Compete For Floor Space In Stores

Los Angeles, which has been hosting its biannual runway shows all week, has been brimming with eco-green-organic-sustainable fashion. Even the red carpets were green.

Socially conscious designer Rogan Gregory was out promoting his Edun, Loomstate and Rogan lines at the celebrated Chateau Marmont hotel. Designer Kevan Hall showed an eye-catching and wearable dress made of mud-dyed cloth. Designer Linda Loudermilk was preparing to send 50 looks down a runway at a "green" BP gas station last night.

The greening of Los Angeles fashion week is well-timed, with the Nobel Peace Prize celebrating global-warming advocacy -- and a good way for the city to carve a niche among the various fashion weeks around the globe. Los Angeles, with its Prius hybrids and environmentally conscious celebrities, is a fitting place for the eco-fashion industry to center itself.
