FFP Launches the Dress Responsibly Lookbook "Raw" Issue

The Fashion Fights Poverty Dress Responsibly is not only a beautiful catalogue of chic ethical and eco fashion, it is also a forum for exploring how fashion and creativity address critical social issues. In 2010, the Lookbook becomes a bi-monthly publication featuring provocative essays from Foreign Policy Digest, FFP program updates, and our trademark fashion spreads featuring chic eco designs shot by esteemed fashion photographers from around the world.

The current "Raw" issue features: an introduction to Eco and Ethical fashion written by Sarah Magallanes and illustrated by Abby Greenawalt; a forest-bohemian-style fashion spread by the ever-talented Jodi King; an essay on Sri Lanka's commitment to sustainable apparel production writen by Brownwen DeSena and illustrated by Michael Muscenti; program updates by Yvette Castro with photos by Apt3 Photography; and ethical style tips by Elaine Mensah and shot by Walter Grio.

100% of proceeds from the sale of the Lookbook benefit FFP's local youth programs and global microfinance acitivities. Buy your copy today» or come to our Launch Event»
