“Dedicated to elevating ethical fashion globally”, the Vegan Fashion Week (VFW) hosted at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles has begun with an opening party.
The four-day event will feature showrooms, vegan lounges, panels, runway shows, and a talk by climate scientist and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Robert Lempert.
“Our aim is to bring vegan avant-garde fashion to the city, an angle that has been dismissed until now. We want to empower vegan designers and show that cruelty-free is the new luxury and can be easily included in the high-fashion realm,” said VFW.
Organized by stylist Emmanuelle Rienda in collaboration with PETA and Fashion Revolution, VFW aims to create “an experience where fashion meets activism with a deeply conscious twist”.
“I want to ignite conversations and debates within the industry by educating, elevating and drawing connections between our most important values: our respect for human life, animal rights, and the environment,” said Rienda.
