"FutureFashion White Papers is an exploration that signifies movement toward a more sustainable fashion industry. It is an opportunity for me, as President of the Council of Fashion Designers of America and as a designer, to think about and evaluate the fashion industry as it stands today and to consider it evolving to become more environmentally friendly in the future. Since 2005, when I participated in Earth Pledge’s FutureFashion runway show, the volume of environmental buzz has increased dramatically. It is now time for the fashion industry to weigh in on this green discussion. . . . I am committed to supporting American designers in their creative expression and to helping them lead a promising and profitable fashion industry. So much of fashion is inspired by nature and, in turn, we must respect its delicacy. In this instance, the environment needs to be protected for its inherent relevance to fashion design, in addition to its and our own survival."--Diane von Furstenberg, from the Preface
