Organic Clothes from Philadelphia Designer – Toggery by Kate D’Arcy!
The desire to
be green and trendy can cause a dilemma for today’s modern Green Girls. Can you have both? Looking for an Eco-friendly clothing line here in Philadelphia without restricting yourself to Vintage shops?
Kate D’Arcy’s line, TOGGERY, is one answer for Philly’s green & fashion-savvy young women. This collection is great because the line is designed for women who want to blend social and economic consciousness with trendy clothes. Each piece of Toggery is comprised of 100% organic and sustainable fabrics, including organic cotton, bamboo and modal. The colorful clothes are created with low impact dyes that use less energy, less chemicals, and produce less waste than natural or vegetable dyes – reducing your fashion carbon footprint. As a result, you’ll feel sexy in Kate’s modern designs and great about your enviro-impact!
Another bonus of purchasing this clothesline is you’ll be supporting a local business, not clothes outsourced overseas. (Kate is from the Philly area.) Almost all aspects that go into the creation of the line are local- From the designer, to a PA-based manufacturer, and all materials used in the clothes are from the US!
Their versatile fall collection has anything from fashion tees & tunics, basic tees, cute shirt dresses, leggings, cropped jackets, and tanks suitable for going out. With colors ranging from Hunter green to merlot, royal purple and classic whites/blacks, you can easily find something to fit your style.
Excited to check out the fashions? You can find Toggery in Philly boutiques Sevilla Smith & Arcadia. As Kate says, “We all have to do our part, why not look fabulous while you do it!”
