Though it doesn’t get nearly as much coverage as it’s sister show in NYC, LA’s Fashion Week certainly has a clout all its own–especially when it comes to Eco-Fashion.  YDT got to attend the show of one of our favorite local (made here in L.A.) eco designers The Battalion.

The 2010 Spring Collection, titled L’Atelier de Danse transformed me to a place where rustic adventure met  chic.  According to sisters Linda and Chrys Wong  “Spring 2010 is about fluidity, transparency, and movement.  We imagined dancers in a naturally lit atelier, dressed up in various costumes that are made of tulle, fring and paper thin jersey.  If women are going back to the basics in the coming season, we want their clothes to be simple but sincere.  We want their wardrobe staples to be wearable, but dream.  We want them to dance, dream and fall in love like the dancers who have inspired this collection.”

For us–it was also great to see an ethical, locally made and produced line get so much acclaim.  We hope to continue to see more eco-fashion designers headlining shows next year–and look forward for what The Battalion will continue to produce.  You can watch a you tube of the complete fashion show below.
