The EcoMan:
Dark and Stormy
Green fashion, as proven by Ashton Michael Spring 2011 line, doesn’t have to be cute or sweet. Tattoos, dramatic makeup and a distinctive rock ‘n roll-goes-Japanese feel makes this unisex collection feel fashion forward and dark. We love that a lot of the looks can be used by men and women - one line for many means less waste, more energy efficient production, and the chance to borrow clothes from a wider group of friends.
Ashton Michael teamed with Seattle-based Rethink Sustainable Solution Group for his collection, made from recycled PET, bamboo, organic cotton and coconut. When you’re ready to check out clothes from the man who’s dressed everyone from Britney Spears to the Black Eyed Peas, visit an Ashton Michael showroom for purchase.
