It is extremely rare that I find something in fashion that I feel is really worth comment. I suppose that if I’d been alive when the bikini was introduced, that event would have qualified. (Hey, I’m a guy, but the Internet didn’t exist back then and I came along several years later. No, granddaughter, I’m not older than dirt.)
An online survey introduced me to one this morning. It’s a boutique firm into green manufacturing that uses recycled flowers to make clothing dyes. The company is called Calyx, http://www.calyxnyc.com/#about.
My initial reactions:
- Elegant, even sexy in an understated way
- Something a woman would be very comfortable wearing
- Probably feels as good as it looks
- Quality
- The woman who runs this firm is genuinely passionate about what she does
Here’s a link to a video on Huffington Post about the firm and its products. This is genuinely worth a look. http://origin-ads.pictela.net/rm/PXL/watermark/mocks/preroll_survey_demo.html. Since this was put up for a survey, I don’t know how long the link will be around.
