The Essentials:
In 2004, eco-fashion pioneer Mira Fannin started Sweet Skins Clothing in her garage in Eugene Oregon. With designs that are accessible and wearable by women of all shapes, sizes and color, the label has been picked up by green boutiques all across North America. The driving force behind Mira’s work remains an uncompromising commitment to social responsibility. She explains, “We want to be a role model for future companies and for young people from diverse backgrounds.”
Ethic-Chic:
Sweet Skins, a minority woman owned organic clothing line, was started 5 years ago at the Saturday Market in Eugene and has grown into a business that is both ecologically sound and ethically run, using the latest and greatest in ecologically sound fibers and conscious clothing manufacturing; like eco-fleece, hemp, organic cottons and wool. Sweet Skins is committed to maintaining strong roots to the community, health of the planet and to pave the road for a more conscious business model.
