Eco-Fashions at Barneys

Eco-friendly fashions designs soon to be placed in New York’s upscale Barneys may appears (to me) more like a marketing strategy than a genuine concern on the environment.

After all, if the clothing designer wants to design apparel while minimizing his global footprint on the environment, why test? I suggest do it on moral judgment. Nonetheless, whether you pay $12.00 for a t-shirt at Target or $75 at Barneys, buying clothes, I like the idea that designers are going green wit their fashion albeit other motives.

Admittedly, I’ve never purchased an outfit from Target, but next time I’m in to pick up my GreenWorks, I’ll be headed to the clothing rack to look for upscale clothing at rock bottom prices. --Lucy
