As awareness and concern about environmental and social issues increase, a bride's desire to be greener on her wedding day has also grown. Women are looking to extend their eco-friendly lifestyle into their wedding, because the event reflects the personality and is a great opportunity to share green values with friends and family.
Brides are looking for dresses that are not only green, but are elegant, beautiful and flattering. The eco-friendly dress is not just for the hippy bride, but is becoming more mainstream, and therefore, there is an increasing demand for designs with more mainstream appeal.
After working with the eco-friendly fabrics, polyester dresses just don't have the same appeal to me anymore. For me, the difference between wearing natural fabric and wearing polyester is the same as buying other clothing of natural fabric versus synthetic, and I think brides can see the difference, too. Natural fabric doesn't look like it could "squeak" as much as polyester tends to look.
By wearing an eco-friendly gown, a bride is able to not only look stunning on her wedding day, but also make a difference. Her dress is a statement in support of environmentally friendly and socially responsible causes. In addition, natural fabrics are so gorgeous and have such a luxurious feel.
