Once upon a time, the phrase “ecofriendly fashion” might have evoked burlap-sack tunics and Birkenstocks. Those days are over, and if anyone still has any doubts, the fashion show at this past winter’s Gorgeous and Green benefit for the nonprofit Global Green should put the case to rest. The runway offered a glance into the future as SF designers took hemp, cotton and bamboo to new, curve-hugging heights. (These one-of-akind prototypes were auctioned off that night, but similar styles may someday turn up at a store near you.)
