Celeste and Anthony Lilore, founders of NYC-based, RESTORE Clothing are on our eco radar.  Having recently met them at a green gathering, they do walk the talk.

Their active wear, RESTORE, spells out all that a conscious fashionista could want:  Responsible, Earth friendly, Sustainable, Technological, Organic, Recycled and Ergonomic, (meaning not unisex).

In addition to aspiring to these planet-friendly attributes, their threads are also versatile — allowing you to transition from yoga or Pilates to street wear, seamlessly.

This past Wednesday, I had the pleasure of attending the first-ever, eco-forum, an invitation-only networking event for environmentally focused executives and business leaders.  With a sold-out attendance of 100 guests, opening remarks by Rohit Aggarwala, Director of Mayor Bloomberg’s Office of Long Term Planning and Sustainability, and an organic cocktail and hors d’oeuvres reception at Rouge Tomate, it was a lovely environment to meet and mingle with eco-preneurs and leaders in the green space.

Eco-forum founding members such as Bradford Rand and Seth Berk of Go Green Expo, Roo Rogers of OZOcar, Alex Matthiesse, president of Riverkeeper and Mara Engel, founder of Organicworks Marketing were in the networking mix.  There was a positive buzz – people were all business and excited to participate.  This wasn’t just a free booze event, everyone was really interested in learning and sharing info, insights and contacts.  It was a fun vibe, I’m glad I attended.  Shouts out to new pals Susan, Smita, Celeste, Anthony, Evan, Brad, Amy, Krissie, Allison, Steven, Alan, Krista, Joshua, Dan, Hugh, Seth and Bradford – looking forward to seeing you again, soon.
