:: Environmental and Elegant: Meet Gypsy 05

By: Carmine Pascuzzi

It’s fair to say that when you think of an impassioned environmentalist it’s hard to go past the mental image of a bohemian who has been bereft from bathing for what smells like an eternity. While everyone is keen to do their piece for the planet – no matter how sadistic short showers in winter seem - not all of us are prepared to ditch the deodorant just yet. Luckily for us, being environmentally aware and looking lush now goes hand-in-hand courtesy of U.S. fashion label, Gypsy 05

“Good planets are hard to find,” is the motto that first began Gypsy’s fight against environmental exploitation in the spring of 2005. Gypsy 05 incorporates a persuasive palate of vibrant, vivacious colours, airy fabrics and silhouettes to further emphasise their nature-inspired theme and showcase effortless elegance.

In an effort to further demonstrate that being environmentally aware and looking awe-inspiring can be one and the same, Gypsy’s one of a kind designs, incorporate organic fabrics, low impact dyes and water based printing in every collection. Aiming to be more than just an artistic statement, Gypsy 05 suggests the importance of smelling the roses, as opposed to picking them; of getting inspired by the majestic beauty of the vast ocean, rather than polluting it.

After enjoy incredibly success overseas and becoming the label of choice for celebrities such as Miley Cyrus, Hayden Panettiere, Christina Aguilera and Ashley Tisdale, Gypsy 05 hopes to evoke the environmental essence of all Australians. Gypsy 05’s message is simple: Recycle, Reduce, Re-planet and feel naturally confident and free while living environmentally friendly and appearing outstanding!
