Top 5 Fashion Designers Who Provide Eco-friendly Swimwear


Our planet is in desperate need of all the help it can get and it is up to each of us who cares what tomorrow will bring for those we leave behind, to do something about it.

One small way of contributing to the health of our planet is to support all eco friendly causes including purchasing that type of clothing. The designers that participate in the new green movement may not be all motivated for the same reason, but they are providing eco friendly clothing.

Even big names like Liz Claiborne and Oscar De Larenta are getting into the act. Even if you’re not a big eco nut, these designs look fabulous and are, in the end, doing something good for us all. 

This could be your chance to do something good for our planet without going out of your way.
