How happy we are that mainstream media are more and more often featuring ethical fashion. Not long ago, Eco Fashion World was mentioned by founder Sally Bjornsen of The Great American Apparel Diet as the place to go to learn more about eco fashion. TIME Magazine interviewed six participants of this great project who don't buy any new clothing during one year.

In the June issue of the American Vogue, model and WHO ambassador Liya Kebede stars in her own eco fashion line, handmade by local women in her native country of Ethiopia. 'We’re employing them so they can be self-sufficient and can send their children to school or rise from poverty,” she says about the project that is part of the work she does with her namesake foundation dedicated to saving the lives of mothes and children around the world. The flats Liya is wearing in this photo are from one of our favourite shoe brands, Olsen Haus.
