Inspiration: Organic Cotton Dresses

Today is a nice day to look at pretty dresses, isn't it? Especially pretty dresses made with organic cotton fabric!

First up, a dress to wear to accept your academy award. Or, maybe to attend the ball? Made with lime green organic sateen, found at Tammy Apostol Couture (photograph by Marlon Corvera).

A pretty organic cotton wedding party. I'm not sure if the dresses photographed are made with organic cotton, but they can be. Olivia Luca makes the dresses to order with your choice of fabrics from their shop. They carry Harmony Art sateens and the colors pictured above are consistant with colors Harmony Art produces.

Next, some dresses to wear to the wedding. Or, perhaps, to a garden party. From top left, retro-style dress with sailor collar in organic cotton by Tammy Apostol Couture. Slouchy Dress with Stitches in organic cotton by Fin Oslo found at Equita. The Edie Dress in organic cotton twill by Mountains of the Moon.

Finally, some destination dresses. As in, destination: beach. Maybe a beach wedding? Scallop Dress in organic cotton by Loup Charmant. Vista Dress in hemp/organic cotton linen by Loyale Clothing found at Equita.

Found this post whilst searching for organic cotton dresses having built a site for MuddandWater, an ethical fashion company using organic cotton and bamboo where possible - woke up to how bad cotton farming is for the environment, not to mention the people who have to farm it! We need more organic cotton clothing in the world - and to put more pressure on clothing manufacturers to use organic cotton too!
