Stewart + Brown Early Spring 2009 Collection
Womenswear clothing line Stewart + Brown have been making beautiful, environmentally-friendly clothing since 2002, taking inspiration from their love of nature and their passion for good design. As a trained painter, co-designer Karen Brown draws inspiration from colors and patterns you can find in her sketchbook (excerpts of which she publishes online!). For fabrics they use only organically grown cotton, lush Mongolian cashmere that helps the nomads sustain their traditional way of life, cruelty-free merino wool and yak down, sustainably harvested tencel gauze, hemp silk charmeuse, hemp jersey and linen cultivated without the use of herbicides, pesticides or defoliants, and factory surplussed recycled and salvage fabric, organic cotton and hemp canvas.
Their latest Early Spring 2009 collection is a mixture of pretty dresses and fun prints and basics, full of pieces that could be worn out on the town or at the yoga studio – not to mention their lookbook features some beautiful photography.
