Lady Calla

Lady Calla walked the streets of New York City asking people where she could find sustainable fashion. She took the subway from Brooklyn, walked along the high fashion streets of Manhattan and ended up at the Highline. This elevated railroad, now converted into a park, used to bring all the manufacturing goods to NYC’s thriving garment district. Today the designers have moved their productions overseas but Lady Calla did some window-shopping in the high-end fashion district.
