Front Cover Fashion Weekly- 1992 -featuring the asymmetric one shoulder dress in organic unbleached cotton cheesecloth with satin trim, picked by Harriet Quick and Andrew Tucker, this modernist view of the future was present in the early collection Charge of the White Goddess - an earth friendly collection featuring natural fabrics and reclaimed materials. The vision was always a futuristic one taking elements from tribalist culture, influences from Boudicca and re-inventing them for the early 90's style generation of free spirits.

  1. I had two pair of conscious Earthwear jeans they were my favourite jeans EVER.
    Could you re-release these jeans again? PLEEEASE. They were soft, fairly low slung, with a wide leg.
    I still have a green army type long skirt you designed. I only found this site as I have looked for CE brand periodically over the years. A designer before her time. I would love the pattern for those jeans.
