Brooklyn Fashion + Design Accelerator

Sustainable textiles have come a long way since their humble beginnings of hemp and bamboo. Giusy Bettoni, the co-founder and CEO of the C.L.A.S.S. Eco-Textile Library based in Milan says her library, which includes organic and natural, repurposed, and renewable textiles with low-impact dyes and processing, continues to grow seasonally thanks to advancements in technology.

Bettoni, who is also the director of the Green Carpet Challenge Fabric Library, is passing through the Brooklyn Fashion+Design Accelerator this Friday and will be offering a a general presentation session highlighting new trends and materials innovation for SS 2016 together with an introduction on how to market and communicate eco-textiles as part of your collection.

Giusy will have a wide range of commercial samples to present and let attendees touch and ask lots of questions about.
