Amour Vert

From the beginning to the completion of a garment, Amour Vert keeps the eco-system in mind every step of the way. Despite their lack of background in the fashion industry, Linda Balti, former fighter-jet simulator developer, and Christoph Frehsee, former land-mine-clearing machinery producer, saw a need for an affordable fashion brand that created minimal waste and started Amour Vert.

The brand is already being sold at Bloomingdales and has even collaborated with Gwyneth Paltrow's blog, Goop.

Amour Vert creates custom fabrics with signature blends of recycled polyester, wood fibers, and organic cotton using a Los Angeles mill.
