LATEST INTERVIEW
Sustainable fashion and where to find it by Laura Zanovello
The sustainable fashion movement has never been as active as in the last few years and increasingly more brands are being invented or re-invented with an ecofriendly imprint. But where is it actually possible to find and buy these brands? Cora Hilts and Natasha Tuckers asked themselves the same question when in 2013 they founded RĂŞve En Vert. Duped as the Net-A-Porter for sustainable fashion, RĂŞve En Vert is an online store that gathers an array of sustainable luxury brands as well as makeup, skincare and home decor products. The selection comprehends activewear, underwear and fashionable pieces with important things in common such as the use of low impact and ethically
produced materials, the production made relying on local communities and the consequent guarantee that the people involved are paid fair wages and work in a suitable and safe environment, last but not least the promise to produce the minimum waste possible through recycling and upcycling. The platform does not only function as an online shop but also expands on a blog where the reader is informed on how to conduct a more conscious and green lifestyle. The customer is involved in every decision and initiative in the name of transparency and sustainability. In this interview, the founders explain the importance of these values and the meaning of their work.
