Flypaper has sketches from Project Runway winner’s Leanne Marshall for Bluefly Collection, I’ll be previewing the collection next week so stay tuned for that. In the meantime, check out what she has to say about the collection…
ON CREATING HER BLUEFLY COLLECTION
“I’ve been working hard on getting the samples produced for the collection and making sure that everything really goes together well; and getting the fit right… I wish it were out today. I wish I could just sew so fast and get it out there immediately, but you, know, good things come to those who wait.”ON HER COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABLE FASHION
“[All the pieces in the collection are] eco-friendly except for the gown. It takes a lot to source [sustainable] fabrics… just getting these textiles, and then getting them in the right colors that I wanted — but it was really important for me to make [this collection] as sustainable as it could be… Almost everything is a natural fiber. There are bamboos, there’s a linen, and a tensile… the dying method [is earth-responsible too].”
