Tatiana Pagés, a Chilean-Dominican New York-based activist designer, debuted her sustainable artwear collection to fashion and art professionals. The LAIO Art Exhibit is part of a movement that aims to increase environmental awareness and promote social change through design. What makes this collection even more lovely, is the fact that sixty percent of each item sold will be donated to AID FOR AIDS, a charity that strives to help communities at risk of HIV and the global population at large.
“I find inspiration through the unexpected, I enjoy taking something that most people consider to be trash and turning it into something beautiful – that is the essence of LAIO” stated Pagés. She continued to say “I am proud and pleased to show my art to the people of New York City, the fashion capitol of the country!”
