Will Work for Trees
Second Annual Her Campus Princeton Photoshoot

Sustainable fashion is misrepested, more frequently than not, as “hippie fashion” but sustainable fashion is achievable (and even desireable) for collegiettes as well. Sustainable (or ecofashion) has changed significantly in recent years to become far more fashion forward while still accounting for clothing production’s impact upon the environment and  the conditions under which the products are made. Sustainable fashion generally focus on the reuse and recycling of materials, is produced in accordance to fair trade standards, is produced via animal friendly practices, supports small scale business, and has environmental awareness. 

The Her Campus Princeton team would like to thank our fabulous photographers — Monica Chon ’15 and Katelyn Scanlan ’13 — for their assistance with the photoshoot. We also want to thank our clothing sponsors (they are credited in the images beow) and Naked Pizza for their support of the project as well as Cooper River Valley Salon for the models’ hair and makeup. We hope you enjoy the fruits of our labor!
