Secret Garden
As we hopefully reached the peak of the COVID-19 virus in NYC and the numbers begin the descend, we may be coming out of the darkness and entering the Spring season, with a new beginning. Fresh buds bloom, animals awaken, and the earth seems to come to life again. Farmers and gardeners plant their seeds and temperatures slowly rise. As we stay secluded at home, focusing on our private lives, for now, we thrive in our “Secret Garden.” We look forward to coming out of hibernation and springing back into the workforce and our regular lives.
The cover feature is launched on the 50th anniversary of Earth Day. An annual event supported around the world to demonstrate environmental protection.
This month’s theme focuses on organic, nature and climate change. We will highlight sustainable fashion designers: Pic-Style and Wanner Label, fashion mask designer, Paloma Soledad, and lastly vegan based Makeup Weapons. And, a special thank you to our floral artist and interview to come with Laura Clare, who designed these beautiful dresses featured on our cover story.
