Hi guys!
On Thursday I had the pleasure to attend the Eco Fashion Week Runway Show here in Seattle! This was my first time ever attending an event like this one, so naturally I was super excited.
The event was a collaboration between Eco Fashion Week and Value Village, celebrating Value Village’s 60th Anniversary. There were two different challenges presented by two designers and three stylists: 68lbs Challenge and the Thrifty Chic Challenge.
In the 68lbs Challenge, two designers were given 68lbs of textiles to create a ten piece line. Why 68lbs? Because that is the amount of clothing that the average American will own and throw out.
In Thrift Chic Challenge, three stylists were each given $500 to Value Village to create ten different looks. Each was given two decades between the 1950’s and the 2000’s to style their outfits after. This was a fun part of the show as most of their outfits were spot on with the era they were representing.
Take a look!

I only included pictures of my favorite outfits and even those pictures didn’t turn out all that well. However if you want more pictures and information on the event visit some of the links below!
