Collina Strada
Few designers are as staunchly dedicated
to the environment as Hillary Taymour,
32, of Collina Strada, who uses recycled
and vintage dead-stock fabrics exclusively—
and has banned single-use plastics
from her Chinatown, Manhattan, studio.
But while she may have a less-is-more
philosophy to consumption, her aesthetic
is anything but minimalist as prints clash
elegantly in ecstatically layered looks.
“If people see my clothes and feel like they
can engage with the environment in a
more caring and sustainable way,” says
Taymour, ” I’ve done my job!” Collina
Strada dress, bodysuit, skirt, and gloves.
