Fashionistas listen up because green fashion isn't just hemp and organic yoga pants anymore. Today, even the top fashionistas can find innovative green fashion from world renowned designers. Top designers like Diane Von Furstenberg and Burberry are increasingly designing pieces that don't exploit the planet. Using eco-friendly fabrics to produce eclectic pieces that do little to no harm to the environment is becoming more than just a fad but a mainstay amongst designers. Check out the latest trends made of bamboo, recycled fabrics, and biopolymers.

This year veteran designers like Givenchy, Rogan, Bottega and Marc Jacobs are getting in the business and runways all over the world are changing their tune when it comes to eco-chic styles. Your choices in green fashion from just this year to last have increased rather dramatically. No longer is buying green fashion as limiting as it once was because designers see that this is not just a passing fad but an economic transition for the future.

No longer are sustainable duds only sold at your local outdoor stores, in fact, today you can find them in the windows at Barney's. Imagine that, sustainable fashion has come so far that the displays at Barney's are loaded with the latest and greatest in green trends.

Are you a green hipster looking for all things green and cool? Then you'll love actor and eco-activist Adrian Grenier and his team of environmental experts, who live it up with sustainable style on Planet Green TV's Alter Eco.
