100% organic clothing in Sao Paulo
Brazil, where fashion designers of all types are taking a greater interest in the environmental impact of their creations and where more and more brands want to minimize the chimical and pesticide uses, last week, the first 100% organic clothing store was opened in Sao Paolo. The clothing is in the Brazilian style, and is based around sustainable fashion, with responsibility, respect for people and the planet. All of the Eden collection uses organic cotton fabrics in pure colors with natural dyes and pigments, completely free of harmful chemicals, certified until the final product. Eden is in partnership with Coexis and the NOW seal (Natural Organic World).
I am happy to hear that fashion designers are doing this. This way they can help save the mother earth

Well, I hope that all of the designers around the world will consider doing this kind of stuff. It's always good to be Earth friendly. Using organic materials is a good idea in fashion.

I know from first hand that http://www.peacefuldisorder.com">organic">http://www.peacefuldisorder.com">organic cotton clothing is a great way to naturally alleviate some skin conditions.
That is an easy call since conventional methods of cotton production use such harsh chemicals.
I have heard some varying numbers on the amount, but everyone agrees the chemicals just are bad for the earth and us.
"Traditional cotton production also attributes to 25% of worldwide insecticide use and 10% of worldwide pesticide use."

My apologies for what may seem lazy but, I should be letting the chickens out, and harvesting the basil that is going to bud instead of sitting at a computer, but this is a job in itself for me to find this clothing; so I have not followed the stream backwards, hope I am not addressing the proper forum here; truly am not familiar with how this works. My question is: Where can I purchase lose fitting, long sleeve type clothing for working in my gardens? I'm not talking "designer/commercial" organic clothing, that some urban dweller considers really cool stuff; but just simple lose, light fitting clothing to protect us from the UV's? NOTE: my wife & I are in the "dirt" always, so we are not going to a local cantina for happy hour. We live in Florida, USA, basically sub-tropical/Hot. And, (my apologies to all; for the decision makers here in the US, it is embarrassing, and it's not our positions! We are truly sorry.) Anyhow, we grow heirloom herbs and vegetables and need this clothing /protection, and were not rich! Any direction you can point us in, would be very helpful. We would like to purchase enough to get us through a week in the fields, with enough to have some being washed by weeks end. Some durability would be helpful. Warm regards and thank you, we are Steve & Ann

Well, as I "and you" have witnessed, their is no interest in clothing the "laborer" in the field, who are bringing in the food to enjoy. One would assume with all the peace, love, and mellow >we're Green< perspectives being thrown or displayed by industry in "Public circles",that at least "someone" would be providing a clothing line with the proper features and have "Value" for the few dollars they should cost. Namaste'

A nice undertaking! I wish such a shop were in my city! Yesterday I read the article about 90% natural boots. May be one day we'll have natural clothes only. But I'm afraid they'll be quite expensive.
