Ecouterre

If you happen to be making your way through New York City today, drop by the Designers & Agents Fall 2011 showroom at the Starrett-Lehigh Building by Chelsea Piers. Ecouterre will be holding court at the Green Room, an "eco-capsule" of emerging green designers we helped curate. (That's us under the giant papier-mâche-bird display.) So come on by, have a hot cuppa on us, and allow us to introduce you to some of the brightest talents sustainable fashion has to offer. We're also raffling off a $100 gift voucher to KAIGHT, our favorite eco-fashion boutique on the Lower East Side, so hurry!

No need for a case of the Mondays this coming week. Designers & Agents will be kicking off another fantastic showing of emerging, style-savvy designers. We are particularly gearing up for the Green Room, a curated, pre-edited "sustainable bouquet" of emerging ethical fashion designers. As an official media partner and curator of the Green Room, Ecouterre's got the inside scoop on the nine designers who were invited to exhibit their conscious collections. Our posse of editors will be there to report live from the event, and of course, check out all the awesome eco wear, so be sure to stop by and stay hi.

We hate to play favorites, but we're fashion writers, not saints. And after three days of sitting pretty at our booth at the Designers & Agents Green Room, each of us succumbed to the siren song of the clothing and accessories that had us, quite literally, surrounded. And what girl doesn't love to play dress up? Here, a selection of our favorite pieces that brought us thisclose to wrestling with security and bolting for the exits.

If you happen to be making your way through New York City today, drop by the Designers & Agents Fall 2010 showroom at the Starrett-Lehigh Building by Chelsea Piers.

So come on by, grab a glass of wine, and allow us to introduce you to some of the brightest talents fashion has to offer.

Monday sees the return of Designers & Agents to its Starrett-Lehigh stomping grounds in New York City, where the international marketplace will be feting clothing and accessories from more than 1,000 independent designers for the fall/holiday season. Also making its return is D&A's Green Room, a curated, pre-edited "eco-capsule" of emerging eco-savvy talent. Here's a sneak peek of the 10 green designers who were invited to exhibit—with a little help from us at Ecouterre—at no charge.
