For a line titled 'A Beautiful Vision,' the Organic by John Patrick Fall 2012 collection certainly (and thankfully) lives up to its name. Patrick named his fall offering after a Julia Margaret Cameron photograph of her niece Julia Duckworth.
If that touching back story doesn't warm your insides, then the fact that the collection is eco-friendly and made from recycled materials definitely should. The slouchy jeans are made in collaboration with Raleigh Denim, whose pieces are recycled or sustainable cotton, polyester and yarn in Raleigh’s factory in North Carolina.
"Certain things can make you really happy — a good vanilla cupcake is one. A fun pair of jeans rolled up to the knee is another," John Patrick tells the New York Times.
The Organic by John Patrick Fall 2012 collection is certainly something that will make fashionistas everywhere very happy.
