If you believe her, and if you believe in living green, then you must take a look at Laura and Becky Carter’s Velvet Leaf clothing line. The duo has fashioned these pretty things with 100% organic certification. From little dresses to long cloaks in color palettes that range from classic black and white to naturals, a Velvet Leaf wardrobe is one that makes a statement about you and your place in the world--and lets you look good while doing so. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 58% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Organic Fashion:** Opportunity to innovate fashion trends with sustainable and eco-friendly materials and production practices. - **Sustainability in Fashion:** Innovation opportunities for fashion companies to adopt sustainable business practices and reduce environmental footprint. - **Ethical Clothing:** Opportunity to disrupt the fashion industry with fashion that is fair trade and ethically produced. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** Fashion industry could innovate products and sustainable practices with the use of environmentally friendly and ethically produced materials and production methods. - **Agriculture:** The agriculture industry could benefit from the increased demand for organic cotton and sustainable crop production practices. - **Retail:** Retail industry could benefit from innovation in sustainable packaging and supply chain practices to meet the demand of conscious consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Eco-Friendly Indian Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/latin-quarters.md) - [Sustainable Indian Streetwear Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cloveify.md) - [Summer-Ready Organic Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/priyankara.md) - [Festive Eco-Friendly Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/earthytweens.md) - [Whimsical Ethically Made Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iclothing.md) - [Eco-Friendly Luxury Dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-dresses.md) - [Botanically Inspired Fashion Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burberry-x-highgrove.md) - [Chic Satin Blazers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/satin-blazer.md) - [Sustainable Dairy-Branded Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organic-valley-2.md)
