No, these beautiful clothes are not made of just your regular, ordinary, chemically processed cotton. Yes, we know that you would have never known. That’s the idea.

Sara Kirsner is the mastermind behind this sinfully beautiful and organic brand of green clothing, called Doie. Kirsner recently moved her line from New York City to Los Angeles, simple calling her new line “Los Angeles.” Sara began her journey in the fashion world by attending the FIT and Parsons in New York City. She then began interning at Marc Jacobs and DKNY and working in the design department of Ann Taylor.

Kirsner then decided to create a line of clothing in 2005. That’s how it all began. Sara Kirsner’s line has been described as flowing, elegant, simple, and most importantly: organic.

Sarh grew up in a very eco conscious family and therefore, began infusing her green lifestyle into her designs. Kirsner’s natural eye for line is apparent in all of her clothing, as she has been drawing and sketching gowns and clothing since the tender age of eight years old where she found inspiration from her fashion icon, her grandmother.

Sara’s designs are not only made of organic cotton but they are also inspired by nature. Most of her designs reflect an Asian inspiration or tropical locale in both the patterns and lines that she uses.

Her clothes are also locally made, in Los Angeles, where she now resides which also cuts down on her carbon footprint and also allows complete control over the production process to insure that it remains entirely eco friendly.

In her mission for creating beautiful sustainable clothing, we at Have It Green Magazine fully appreciate the clothing that Sara Kirsner has created and cannot keep our hands of her latest. If only the pieces could just fly into our closets. Now that would be a green dream.

New York Fashion Week is something out of the ordinary as of lately. This isn’t your regular New York chic: it’s fashion week, and green fashion is giving everyone a run for their money. From real life looks to over the top avant garde creativity, green fashion is becoming quite the trademark of this twice yearly fashion frenzy event.

Among the many designers featuring green articles in their lines, Samantha Pleet stood out among all the rest. Samantha Pleet showed her collections at the GreenShows during New York Fashion Week. The Brooklyn designer, uses only organic cotton, organic wool, and makes her fantasy outfits in a wind powered factory in New York City. Yes, we said a wind powered clothing factory in New York City. Didn’t think it existed? Neither did we.

Her statement is one expressed through dark colors, somewhat rough looking materials, and her clothing is certainly not suited for that of a suburban housewife. She touches on the unreal and fantasy world and brings a whimsical, dark feeling to her clothes that is original and unlike any other we’ve seen. Her fashion shows are to say the least dramatic, yet all the while environmentally dreamy.

The renowned designer just recently released a men’s line called Patrick Pleet, which will soon be available in stores worldwide. So whether you’re a man looking for a twist to that boring suit of yours, or a woman looking for a new look that might surprise and maybe even shock some others, Samantha Pleet has the designs you need. All that, along with being eco friendly, we certainly are happy to say Pleet’s designs are an HIG Magazine favorite.

The green fashion scene has certainly taken off and we’re proud to say that it looks like “Green Fashion Shows” during Fashion Week are here to stay.
