Our First Annual Earth Month Fashion Show, "Reduce Reuse Recycle" raised over $3400! Proceeds benefited our Earth Month partners, Lower Mississippi Riverkeeper and Gulf Restoration Network, who work to clean up the Gulf of Mexico around Texas and Louisiana.

The fashion show featured four segments of clothing. The first segment were outfits created from recycled materials, made by the design students from the University of Incarnate Word Fashion Design program. The second segment featured off-the-rack outfits from In The Anthill Boutique, plus two custom-made outfits from Anthony Ryan of Project Runway fame made using recycled denim. The K Charles Stone Oak team donated those to the event. Third was clothing and accessories from Ritual clothing, a Los Angeles-based clothing company that believes in using sustainable materials and paying their workers a fair, living wage. The last segment showed outfits made by the employees from each salon locations, including Salon Syzygy, using recycled materials found in the salons, such as product bottles/cans, empty color tubes, color boxes, and packing paper. Also featured was a silent auction and musical entertainment before the show and during intermission.
