Eco Fashion Club at VCU

Our mission is to inspire VCU students to pair their love of fashion with their concern for the world in which we live.

We strive to educate and facilitate greener practices concerning fashion in their day-to-day life as well as on campus.

Members include fashion designers, fashion merchandisers, and students of all other majors who love fashion or would like to be more sustainable with their apparel choices.
