Spring and summer collections from Vancouver's top ecofashion designers are fun and whimsical yet elegantly minimalist

The sartorial masters of the universe—designers—have made sure that the looks for Spring/Summer 2011 are heaps of fun. More fun than winning the roller derby championships. More indulgent than a platter of vegan brownies.

Better still, Vancouver’s homegrown ecofashion set have added distinctly wearable and sustainable touches to their runway collections.

Think tonal colour combos, disco-chic, pajama parties and minimalism.
