Let’s go back to the 1950s, the Golden Age of fashion...  At a time when care and effort was devoted to garments, raw materials were imported, and fashion was a slow and deliberately crafted process- the lavish and inventive flourished. However, elegant clothing was typically created for the select few who happened to fit into the elite and the beauty standards of the time.  Now, as the fashion industry begins to modernize and better reflect the world we live in , the rise in mass production has accelerated fast fashion, threatening the future and once again constricting access to high-quality garments. 

We aren’t exactly throwing out the playbook, but rather taking it and cutting it up. Now is the time to bring care and intention back into fashion without all the unnecessary barriers based on size, shape, color or identity. It’s not just all about vintage clothing — Vie en Vert is also secondhand, and upcycled clothing. Vie en Vert, (translated into “Life in Green”), revives the treasures of the past to shape a sustainable future in fashion.
