Dutch supermodel Lonneker Engel spoke about her concerns over the devastating effects that fashion can have on the environment during the launch of Green Fashion Competition, at Amsterdam Fashion Week.
*Gorgeous in a organic cotton white T-shirt, Lonneker also made a point to say that you don’t need to say no to brands be green – nor suffer. She said that her favorite "green bag" is Chanel. "I’m not a saint," revealed the model, "but I try to make responsible choices whenever I can. I’d better opt for a classic bag in place of ten cheaper ten bags, but produced under questionable circumstances." Lonneker Engel, who is a collaborator of the green website "Organice Your Life", wrapped things up vintage-style: "It’s better to raid your grandmother’s wardrobe than go out shopping."
