Designer Daily: Samantha Pleet
Edited by Jessica Lapidos
Armed with organic fibers and heritage wools, Samantha Pleet sought to revive romanticism for Fall 2012. With a halo of gold around their heads, the designs paint a picture of soft beauty, with a backstory of sustainability. Since Pleet’s debut in 2006, the now 29-year-old designer has used eco-friendly materials in a delicately cool way. She’s shown with Gen Art and The Green Shows, and continues to build a following of girl rockers like The Dirty Projectors and Au Revoir Simone, along with girls who want beautiful clothes (that just happen to be carefully crafted to preserve the environment).
