Director and designer of NZ fashion label Starfish, Laurie talks about sustainability in NZ fashion industry.
After 12 years our Wellington store has had a makeover. In designing the store we used the same approach used when designing our clothes, blending raw materials with sophisticated design. The honesty of concrete, raw steel, glass, wood and hemp have been celebrated in their original state but used in a way that creates a warm and intimate environment. We have also endeavored to select materials based on their low environmental impact, using ECNZ certified MDF panels and energy efficient 5W ‘green bulbs’. Come and check out the result at 128 Willis Street.
