A life of admiration for Nature inspired Clothing Matters' owner & founder Marta Swain to spend 20 years developing & facilitating Interplay, an experiential learning modality that uses design as a universal language to engage people in introspection, observation, inquiry and association to create a unique perspective with which to explore how personal, social & ecological well-being are interdependent. - In 1996, after learning that cotton was our world's most heavily treated crop, Marta created Clothing Matters, an eco-apparel venture committed to respecting & reflecting Nature's brilliance, while avoiding & offsetting apparel’s impact as one of our world’s most toxic industries. - For 23 years, Clothing Matters has invested with over 120 local, regional, U.S. & international partners committed to practices that prevent pollution, waste, and unfair working conditions. - Serving 5 generations of clientele from near and far, Clothing Matters is proud to provide opportunities for people to feel good in & about clothing that connects and positively impacts individuals, communities & ecosystems. -
