Saying Goodbye to 'Robofashion'

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Some goodbyes are painful. Others are a joyous occasion as we relinquish the past and embrace the future. For designer John Patrick, "the future is now" as we bid a joyous adieu to "Robofashion" – his term for cookie-cutter styles.

John Patrick aims to replace excess with excellence through his sustainable modern designs. He’s here to remind us that "luxury isn’t about stuff, it’s about integrity".

From the organic cotton fields in Peru to his innovative sourcing of dress shirts from recycled bed sheets, John Patrick’s vision transcends the popularity of eco-fashion and merges with a deeper sense of business integrity. He is an alchemist of fashion, utilizing the most natural, low-impact dyes from the earth, revamping discarded materials and transforming the future of your wardrobe.

This 100% organic cotton tank-dress, for example, is one of the easiest trends of the season in gray, yet its classic shape is bound to sustain your look for years to come.

    This is a GREAT quote: “luxury isn’t about stuff, it’s about integrity”. That just about says it all!

    i dunno, its great that this is so ecological, but i wouldn’t say that it isn’t “robofashion” as everyone and their sister seems to be going for this look now. (big, long, tenty tops and leggings) but it is cute

    pm, I have to agree with you ;) I love this dress in particular – I think the color and texture do it for me – but I’ve never been able to get into the long shirt/leggings look. I know a couple of women who pull it off like they were born to, and look stunning every day seemingly without an ounce of effort, but then I see young girls running around looking like fashion victims in the long layered look. But at least it’s an improvement over thongs hanging out of squished jeans! :)
